Exhibitor Information

You have the unique opportunity to promote your organization by exhibiting during the 2009 NACCAP Conference at Cedarville University on June 2-5, 2009 while making the conference beneficial for all attendees.

Over 500 undergraduate, graduate and seminary professionals, as well as high school guidance counselors will meet for NACCAP's annual professional development conference on the campus of Cedarville University in Cedarville Ohio just outside of Dayton. The purposes of gathering together on an annual basis include:

  • Ongoing review and refinement of our mission as an organization
  • Professional development for our membership through workshops
  • Cooperative efforts to assist students in the college and graduate school decision process
  • Idea sharing
  • Opportunities for team-building and networking

During the conference we seek to highlight other organizations that can help our conference attendees reach their goals. All organizations, including those that provide a service that directly impacts our recruiting efforts and student's choices, are invited to attend.

We encourage you to consider a more direct means of promoting your organization to the conference attendees by being an event sponsor. In this section, you will find a list of the possible sponsorship events within the conference. Your organization will benefit from participating in the conference as an exhibitor and/or sponsor because of the niche opportunity this conference provides.

If you are interested in a sponsorship opportunity, there is a list available in this section. Please contact me at krista@naccap.org or call 1-888-423-2477.

As you register, we would like to promote your attendance with our conference attendees. We ask that you send your logo in a JPG format to krista@naccap.org.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions at 1-888-423-2477. For more conference details, please visit the conference website or follow the links from the NACCAP website.

Sincerely,
