When talking in a general sense about setting and reaching goals, people often say things like “I need to get on track” or “I’ve got to stay on track.” They think of themselves as being on a path, and to tread off it invites danger and possibly mission failure. A track keeps you focused and gets you where you want to go.

When self-storage professionals go to industry conferences and tradeshows, they generally have three primary objectives: to meet with people, to buy stuff and to learn stuff. A key component in achieving that last goal is attending timely, relevant seminars. Whether a person is fixated on investing, building, ownership or operation, topic-themed education sessions lead them successfully to their ultimate destination. This is why the seminar program at the Inside Self-Storage (ISS) World Expo is organized into comprehensive tracks!

This year’s event is taking place April 19-22 at The Mirage Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, and as always, it offers an extremely robust curriculum. Our six seminar tracks—Building, Innovation, Investing, Management, Ownership and Protection—aim to address the learning needs of all participants. No matter your role in the business or level of expertise, you’ll find information that meets your needs. If you’re looking to succeed in self-storage, ISS World Expo will get you there.

Always Fresh

Every year, the ISS education team builds an entirely new seminar program brimming with fresh content. We keep our finger on the pulse of the business, listening to our readers, authors, speakers, advertisers, exhibitors, sponsors and other supporters to discover the issues that are causing the most pain for industry professionals. We keep a keen eye on the community to see what’s important and our ear to the ground to hear what people have to say. We absorb as much feedback as we can, and we use it to build the education sessions people want most.

This year, our 42 seminars take place over April 20 and 21. Each is 50 minutes long and led by a respected expert. Some presenters are well-known to the ISS audience, while others are new to the expo scene. All of them bring years of in-the-trenches experience and buckets of knowledge of share. Following is a sample of topics you’ll enjoy in 2022.

Building. This segment is constantly evolving, and there’s much to learn.
