The tuition (Manager/Staff/Volunteer CAI members $75) (Manager/Staff/Volunteer Non-members $90) includes full-day attendance, lunch, snacks, gifts and prizes.
Business Partners who are not exhibiting or sponsoring may attend as long as they adhere to our Suitcasing Policy. CAI has a no tolerance policy regarding "suitcasing," which describes the practice by non-exhibiting and non-sponsoring companies or individuals representing their services or products, or soliciting conference participants for conflicting activities. For CA Day 2008, we will provide an unattended "community table" at which business partners may display their business cards only. CAI Business Partners: $125; Non Member Business Partners/Vendors: $150.
