About the ACET Spring Conference: The Spring Conference typically draws about 650-750 members on average each year with anywhere from 30-40 exhibitors in attendance. About 80% of our conference attendees are Texas school district or Education Service Center administrators who work with compensatory education programs like Title I, Title II, Title III, State Compensatory Education, or other programs under the umbrella of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). The other 20% is comprised of campus administrators and various other school staff, including business office staff. Our main partner in the conference is the Texas Education Agency which provides topics and speakers for most of our large general sessions and many of our smaller concurrent sessions. School districts and Education Service Centers with best practice models provide the bulk of the concurrent sessions. While the majority of our exhibitors represent education related products and services, we do also have a sprinkling of vendors who exhibit non-educational items (jewelry, candles, food, etc.) As an exhibitor you have access to the ACET Exhibitor Guest Room Rate at the Austin Renaissance Hotel ($151/single). Also check our overflow hotels at www.acetx.org/hotel for special rates at area hotels as the Renaissance sells out quickly. Your exhibitor registration also allows 2 exhibitor representatives to attend any of the ACET Conference events.
