Sponsorships

The Texas Community College Instructional Administrators Summer Conference is an annual event that convenes between 60 and 85 high level instructional leaders from Texas community colleges.  Generally speaking, our attendees are Vice President's of Instruction, so they have a pulse on what faculty want and need, as well as the ability to funnel resources towards those ends.  We have expanded in recent years to include some Deans; however, I would say that our 2/3rds of our attendees are usually VP's of Instruction.  

Our tiered sponsorship levels are as follows:

Bronze - $500
This would entail a name in the program and on the conference website. 
*These are normally reserved for community colleges wishing to sponsor the conference. 


Silver - $1000
This is a sponsorship of the overall conference, and would entail
  • inclusion of the sponsor's materials as a part of the conference registration packet,
  • the sponsor's name in the program (larger display than Bronze level),
  • the sponsor's logo on the conference website (larger display than Bronze level),
  • access to a contact list of conference attendees, and
  • one conference registration fee waiver for a representative to attend the conference.

Gold - $1500
This is a sponsorship the overall conference and of a special event (either the President's Reception, Awards Luncheon, the TCCIA Monday Night Excursion [this year it's a cruise], or one of the two breakfasts held at the conference.  This is also a sponsorship of the overall conference.  It would entail:
  • an opportunity to briefly address attendees at the sponsored event,
  • inclusion of the sponsor's materials as a part of the conference registration packet,
  • the sponsor's name in the program (larger display than Bronze/Silver levels),
  • the sponsor's logo on the conference website (larger display than Bronze/Silver levels),
  • access to a contact list of conference attendees, and
  • one conference registration fee waiver for a representative to attend the conference.  
A note about our conference.  Since all attendees participate in one single meeting space for the duration of the conference, this event has not traditionally been one at which vendors set up their displays in a vendor area.  However, if this is something that you would desire as a sponsor, we will make arrangements for an appropriate vendor space that is close to the conference event.  Please know that most sponsors have found it most effective to meet and mingle with the conference attendees, as this is a smaller conference that should allow for contact with all attendees for a sufficient time to make your product/cause known.
