ROOM SCHEMATA
This layout will be updated with secured and confirmed booths on a periodic basis.
Below are the available booths for you to RESERVE. You can reserve up to 3 and will be asked to notate your first, second and third choice. Please note it shows a $0 fee right now. That is because you are simply RESERVING your preferences. You will then receive an invoice via your e-mail, with your specific price and a confirmation of one of those booth numbers (pending any unforseen reason where we might need to make an adjustment). That booth will be on hold for you for two weeks (including weekends). We must receive payment via credit card during those two weeks from the date the invoice was SENT in order to officially confirm your booth.
If the booth is grayed out, it means that is no longer available for purchase.

PLEASE NOTE: After you add your first product (ie booth) the Shopping Cart page, you will need to hit the back arrow on your browser to get back to this page and add more things to your cart. The Continue Shopping button has a minor glitch we are working to fix.

BOOTH LOCATION
Booth locations will be determined by order of reservation and completed payment date, upon receipt of the invoice. Your booth is NOT CONFIRMED until we receive payment. You have a two week period to pay for your booth, from the date of the invoice. For booths, ONLY credit cards will be accepted for payment. (Checks can be issued for Sponsor payments.)
Priority placement will be given to EXPO Sponsors and Annual Chapter Sponsors. Annual Chapter Sponsors have a two-week advanced purchase window from April 1 - 15. Booth locations will be updated on the chapter website on an ongoing basis.
While we plan to make every accommodation to ensure the booth you select and prefer is the one you receive, we do reserve the right to make minor adjustments to the layout and will inform you of any changes. Therefore, as a "just in case" measure, you are offered the option to RESERVE up to 3 booths and mark your order of preference 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.
The map below will be updated every few days (and noted with a date), so you can see who is where. If you don't see an option in the booth items below, but it looks "open" on the layout map, it's probably because we are in the process of updating the map.

BOOTH PAYMENT

Please note: If payment is not received within the 2-week deadline, your selected booth will be put back into the pool for sale.

BOOTH SUITCASING POLICIES
CAI has a no-tolerance policy regarding “suitcasing,” which describes the practice by non-exhibiting companies or individuals of soliciting sales or sales leads on the tradeshow floor, or in the aisles or lobbies.
It is considered bad form to conduct business outside of the classroom. Talking to clients or prospects in or in front of someone else’s booth or someone else’s course is also a violation of CAI policy and will not be tolerated.
Only registered exhibitors will be allowed on the tradeshow floor. EXPO sponsors that have not purchased a booth will only be allowed on the tradeshow floor during their sponsored event and will not be able to conduct business or visit tradeshow booths.
Violators of these policies will be ejected from the show.
BOOTH SHARING
Booths are for a single company and only that company’s logo can be displayed.
REFUND POLICY
There are no refunds and booths are not transferrable. While we don't anticipate having to reschedule, if the event should reschedule due to global illness other unforseen reasons concerning the safety of our participants, all reasonable fees will be transferred to the newly scheduled event, in lieu of a refund.
