Wisconsin Employee Wellness Conference: Elevating Workplace Well-Being Together

Tuesday, December 8 - Wednesday, December 9, 2026

Hilton Madison Monona Terrace,
Madison, WI
Presented by the former WCWI now part of Wellness Alliance

Formerly known as the WCWI Employee Well-Being Conference, this statewide event has focused on workplace wellness and well-being strategies for 35 years! This year, we're expanding our reach to a midwest audience.

The Wellness Council of Wisconsin (WCWI) has formally joined the Wellness Alliance! This transition allows WCWI’s mission, programs, and professional community to continue within a broader national organization, while staying rooted in the values and connections that have defined our work here in Wisconsin.

For 35 years, WCWI’s Annual Employee Wellness Conference has shaped the future of employee wellness. As the largest conference in the Midwest specific to employee well-being, the Wellness Alliance will continue to strategically design agendas filled with thought-provoking keynotes and hours of networking with hundreds of like-minded wellness practitioners, human resources professionals, talent development practitioners, people leaders, and culture designers.
