Frequently Asked Questions
Registration and Ticketing
We are so excited for you to join us! You may register for the conference here. Your registration includes entry to our fast-paced and informative conference with leading researchers; generous hospitality and some of the best Memphis cuisine and drinks (two dinners, one breakfast, and one lunch); the opportunity to connect with informed and engaged peers from across the country; and a copy of Primed to Perform, a custom notebook, a SchoolCEO magazine, and more.
Venue and Logistics
The conference and check-in will be held in the heart of downtown Memphis at the Halloran Centre for Performing Arts & Education. The Halloran is within walking distance to most downtown hotels and restaurants, and our team will gladly accompany you on your walks to and from dinner! We suggest valeting your car at your hotel and joining us by foot for dinner. We will always share our meeting points and times for walking groups!
If you are driving in for the day, there is a parking garage right next to the Halloran, or if you prefer to park closer to the restaurants, there is a parking lot between the Halloran and restaurants.
Schedule and Sessions
You may find the conference schedule here. There is a welcome dinner and reception on Monday, September 25, breaks and lunch on Tuesday, September 26, as well as dinner, drinks, and karaoke on Tuesday! These meals are included in the price of your admission.
There are optional pre-conference Thrillshare training sessions on Monday during check-in if you’re interested in learning more about Apptegy’s product and services. Sign up for a pre-conference training session here. While these are designed for those already familiar with Thrillshare, you will still benefit from the concepts and SchoolCEO research presented during each session.
