EACE Exhibitor Terms and Conditions

Character. The exposition, sponsored by the Eastern Association of Colleges and Employers (EACE), is a professional conference for HR/staffing and college career services practitioners. EACE reserves the right to determine the eligibility of any company, product, or services and the rights to restrict, prohibit, or evict any exhibitor or product, which, in the opinion of EACE, detracts from the character of the exposition or for any violation of the following Terms and Conditions. In the event of such restriction or eviction, EACE is not liable for refunding exhibit fees or any other cost incurred by the exhibitor. EACE will not accept advertising for tobacco, alcohol, drugs, or firearms, and/or products/services that promote nudity and/or pornography. Products and services in the exhibit hall must be related to career development or recruitment/selection. A company's participation in the exposition does not reflect a product endorsement by EACE. The exhibitor may not make any statements in print, orally, or electronically that state or imply such endorsement.

Booths consisting of 6’ x 4’ inline or corner space must not exceed a height of 8 feet. Exceptions may be granted where the booth(s) are located along perimeter walls.

Exhibitors are required to ensure that their displays do not have a negative impact on the show environment through excessive noise, heat, light, etc.

Payment Terms. All contracts for booth space received after February 29, 2008 must be paid at the “in full” rate of $800.00 at the time of reservation.
