[Primary Logistics Contacts]
How to Coordinate Your Staff Registration, Housing & Complimentary Registrations
As the primary logistics contact designated to coordinate your company’s participation at this year's EDUCAUSE Annual Conference, you play an important role in managing your staff registration and housing.
To do so, you should have received an email from EDUCAUSE staff with a unique link to your company's Exhibitor eConsole for accessing the Maritz Registration Dashboard.
Through your dashboard, you will:
- Determine who will staff your booth at this year's event;
- Upload your staff's contact information and;
- Invite staff to register for the event. Each person will complete their own event registration from their unique invite.
Everyone attending must complete their own event registration and will be prompted to log in or create an EDUCAUSE Profile before doing so. This includes staff working your booth, presenters, and/or those who wish to attend for professional development. Purchasing an opportunity does not automatically register anyone.
It is important that your staff register as soon as possible in order to receive necessary event communications in advance. We highly recommend registering no later than September 24.
Access the Step-by-Step Guide
For step-by-step instructions on how to coordinate registration and housing, including how to use your complimentary exhibitor and full conference registrations (if applicable), download the guide below.
To check the status of your staff’s registrations, log in to your Exhibitor eConsole at any time and select the Exhibitor Registration and Housing tile. If you have questions regarding registration or housing or if you experience system difficulties, please contact Maritz Global Events (formerly Experient) by email or call 864-641-6856.

Registration Cancellations
Registration cancellations received on or before September 30 are entitled to a full refund. If you cancel after September 30, no refund will be issued. Your credit card used as a guarantee will be charged the balance due without prior notification.
To request a cancellation, please send an email to [email protected].
Important Note: Cancellation of your conference registration does not mean cancellation of your hotel reservation. You must cancel each separately. Registrations and hotel reservations cancelled after certain dates are subject to processing or other fees.
Housing
Every individual must register for the conference before they can secure housing, regardless if your company has secured a hotel room block or not. No rooming lists will be accepted.
If you request a room block, each individual—whether attending as booth staff or for professional development—will only be presented with rooms within your organization's block during registration.
This means rooms could be reserved by staff who are not working the event before your booth staff have had a chance to register, and you could run out of rooms for your booth staff. Please keep this in mind when requesting the quantity of rooms required when adding staff to your registration roster.
All rooms require name assignments by September 10.
Credit card guarantee is required for hotel rooms.
Important Reminder: Cancellation of your conference registration does not mean cancellation of your hotel reservation. You must cancel each separately. Registrations and hotel reservations cancelled after certain dates are subject to processing or other fees.
Housing & Registration Advisory
Maritz Global Events (formerly Experient) is the Official Housing and Registration bureau for the EDUCAUSE Annual Conference.
Improper solicitation of hotel reservations from any company other than Maritz Global Events is not approved. Reservations made by unaffiliated organizations may appear to have lower rates, however they may be illegitimate, not have the rooms to sell, have unreasonable cancellation or change penalties, or be completely non-refundable.
Please be aware of and report any unauthorized solicitations to EDUCAUSE.
