ETC’s Annual Conference Protocol
Support this collaborative community and help us deliver a professional Conference!
As a meeting delegate, I choose to be a positive part of our community and agree to support the following official protocol. The protocol ensures security for delegates as well as respect for sponsors who have helped underwrite many valued components of the Conference which benefit all delegates.
Acknowledgement:
- I will be a registered and identified participant in the sessions and events of this Annual Conference by always displaying your official meeting badge. As a measure of security, only individuals wearing an official conference badge will be given access to sessions, events and the International Bazaar. This ensures that those members who make this gathering possible by officially registering, are the individuals that benefit from the education delivered in this Conference.
- I will forego hosting and/or participating in private events that compete with official conference educational sessions, events, and all sponsored venues during the dates of the Annual Conference. In recognition of their underwriting support of the Conference, which directly benefits all delegates, official conference sponsors are provided a sponsors’ only benefit option of hosting private invitational/hospitality breakfasts, cocktail parties, and dinners on dates and times officially posted in the Conference agenda. ETC’s Annual Conference Organizers retain the right to preclude future registration of all companies and individuals operating in violation of this sponsoring protocol. Confirmed sponsors are updated weekly and posted on the ETC website.
- I will courteously respond to the one-to-one meeting requests from colleagues attending the Conference. One-to-one meetings are confirmed at the mutual interested consent of both parties, contrary to trade show formats. Courtesy dictates that you respond to requests to connect – to allow everyone to efficiently organize their conference days.
