Interested exhibitors may register for booth space at the Calgary City Teachers' Convention using the online submission form.
Each application will be reviewed and approved by CCTCA based on the product and services offered. CCTCA is looking for products and services which will support education, teacher wellness and curriculum. If exhibitor products and services do not meet these standards, CCTCA has the right to not accept an exhibitor application. The submission and approval of your exhibitor application does NOT hold an exhibitor booth for your organization. Registration is not considered complete until a booth is selected and payment is received.
Once the booth application is approved exhibitors will receive an 'approval email'. The 'approval email' will provide access to the purchasing module on www.cctca.com. The approved exhibitor may log into your account, select a booth and make payment for booths via online credit card payment or by cheque.
Registration is not considered complete until payment is received. If an exhibitor submits the online registration form without credit card payment, the booth is held for 30 days. Failure to make payment within 30 days of creating an exhibitor booth invoice will result in booth cancellation.
CANCELLATION POLICY
- CCTCA reserves the right to cancel any exhibit booth registration at any time.
- CCTCA reserves the right to cancel a registered booth if payment is not received within 30 days of registering the booth.
- Booths cancelled by the exhibitor after September 1st, will receive a refund less a $50.00 cancellation fee.
