UCET Partner Expectations & Terms

Welcome! We are thrilled to have you join us for the annual UCET Conference. To ensure a successful experience for our attendees and all our valued partners, please review the following expectations and guidelines.

🤝 Participation & Professionalism

• Admittance: Only partners with an authorized booth and active registration for the current year are permitted in partner areas.
• Code of Conduct: Representatives are expected to behave in a professional, business-like manner. UCET is a community of educators; rudeness or insulting behavior toward members or other partners will not be tolerated.  

We want the Partner Hall to feel welcoming and enjoyable for everyone. To help create that atmosphere, please keep these guidelines in mind:

• Keep it friendly, not pushy. Let attendees explore at their own pace.
• Be informative. Share what you do in a clear and helpful way.
• Respect boundaries. If an attendee isn’t interested, let them move on comfortably.
• By keeping interactions low-pressure and focused on sharing information, you’ll help make the Partner Hall a place attendees are excited to visit and explore.

• Competitor Etiquette: To maintain a fair environment, partners should not attend a competitor’s presentation or visit another booth without disclosing their partner status.
• Credentials: Only individuals with proper UCET-issued credentials may attend conference events or meals.

🎪 Display Area & Logistics

• Venue: The conference venue changes annually. Please refer to your specific registration confirmation for the current location and shipping instructions.
• Booth Assignments: Table/booth/display area assignments are made based on partner level and date of payment. Booths will be selected in a first come, first served order. All booth selections will be assigned by UCET’s Partner Liaison.
• Sizing: Your display must fit within the footprint of your specific partner level (e.g., 20’x20′, 10’x20′, or 10’x10′).
• Schedule:
  • Day 0 (Setup): Move-in typically occurs between 12:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m.
  • Day 2 (Teardown): Take-down begins at 2:30 p.m. Early packing is discouraged as it disrupts the attendee experience.  If you need to leave early, arrangements can be made with the Partner Liaison to print and put up a sign in your booth during the time you will not be there for a small fee.

🎤 Presentations & Sponsorships

• • Call for Proposals: If your package includes a presentation, you must apply by the partner-specific deadline listed on the UCET website.
  • Payment Requirement: Registration fees must be paid in full by the presentation deadline to ensure your sessions are included in the official program.
  • Digital Content: Partners are responsible for submitting pre-recorded videos by the established deadlines to be included in the conference app.

• Presentation Attendance: UCET cannot guarantee levels of attendance at presentations.  To help draw attendees to your presentation, consider the following:

• • • Make sure your presentation doesn’t feel like a sales pitch
    • Provide content that relevant to educators regardless of whether they are your customers or not
    • Consider having a teacher present or co-present to share what they are doing in their classroom with your product

• Additional Activities: Partners are welcome to sponsor UCET activities throughout the conference. Arrangements for sponsorship must be made through the UCET Partner Liaison. Sponsorship will be acknowledged on the UCET web site and for Platinum partners, their logo will be on volunteer t-shirts as well as the keynote slides.

💳 Financial Terms & Cancellations
