Lodging
All resort lodging is booked for the attendees. Please do not call the resort since they will not be able to assist you. Below are the lodging options for Sponsors.
Gold and Platinum Sponsors
Gold and Platinum sponsors are not provided with housing by ACPE; we expect these sponsors to obtain their own housing outside of The Resort using the links provided below. No one at the Resort or ACPEnw will be able to assist in this process.
Diamond Sponsors
ACPE Reserves housing on the property and near the property for Diamond Sponsors; however, Diamond Sponsors must pay for this housing. Additionally, this housing is first come, first serve, and can run out. If so, Diamond sponsors are on their own to locate additional housing if necessary.
Additional Housing
Please review our additional housing page for more information.
Conference Attendee Details
Demographics
ACPE’s conference is aimed at leadership-level IT professionals, including CIOs, CTOs, executive directors, directors, and network, server, and system administrators. Our conference will sell out as has been the case for the last five years. This means there will be ~500 conference attendees. ~400 of those are leadership and support staff from K-12 IT departments. Our survey of those attendees shows over 80% of them are the decision-makers or provide significant influence for all IT spending in their school district. The other ~100 attendees are staff attending through sponsorships.
Lead Retrieval
The attendee list is distributed one week before the conference. A final attendee list is distributed one week after the event to account for any last-minute changes.
Sponsor Sessions
Placement for the Sponsor Showcase area is determined by the Board using a rubric that weights sponsor level, participating member co-sponsor and whether the subject is novel and timely. Only sponsors who have paid in full will be considered for placement.
Session Proposal
ACPE has between 8-12 sponsor sessions available. Unfortunately, we will have more applications than we have spots, so a board sub-committee will make selections using a rubric that rates the following criteria:
- Sponsor level;
- ACPE member co-presenter; and
- Topic relevance
Sponsor session submission closes on March 3 at 5 p.m.
Logo
We will prominently display your company’s logo on our main website after you have paid for your membership. We will use the logo displayed on your company’s website unless you provide us with a different one. We will link to your company’s website unless you provide another link.
Diamond Sponsors
We will also feature Diamond sponsor logos on key attendee communications prior to the event.
Please use our contact form to provide alternative links or logos.
Submit alternative sponsor links or logos

If you do have products to give away, ACPE accepts donations that will be randomly given away to its members during the closing ice-cream social.
