SHARING THE WEALTH OF WI-FI
Member and attendee actions affect ASCD events. To support the goal of
providing a positive experience for all participants, we ask that you consider
your effect and make good choices when using shared resources at the
conference. Read full ASCD Conference Wi-Fi information here.
ROOM OVERCROWDING
All sessions fill on a first-come, first-served basis. For your safety, and because of fire regulations, meeting rooms that fill to capacity will be restricted.
ASCD staff and convention center personnel must follow local fire regulations
and will ask participants in an overcrowded room to leave the room. Stand-ing;room;is;not;an;option; only persons occupying a seat will be allowed to
remain in the session.
CONSENT TO USE VIDEO OR PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES
Registration and attendance at or participation in ASCD meetings, conferences, and other activities constitutes agreement by the registrant to
ASCD’s use and distribution of the registrant or attendee’s image or voice in
photographs, videotapes, websites, electronic reproductions, and audiotapes
of such events and activities.
CONFERENCE SECURITY AND BADGE HELPFUL TIPS
In an effort to enhance security, ASCD requires that attendees wear their
conference name badge at all times during conference hours. Badges must
be worn to gain admission to sessions, the Exhibit Hall, and the shuttle
buses. Your badge not only indicates that you are fully registered for conference, but is also a courtesy to other registrants. Please remember to be
safety conscious and take off your badges when you are not on-site at the
Pennsylvania Convention Center.
