2009 Annual Conference "Optimizing Resources to Meet Florida's Education Challenges." Dear FAEDS Conference Partners: Mark your calendar for September 28-30, 2009. Florida Association of Educational Data Systems (FAEDS) is having its 2009 annual conference during these dates in Orlando, Florida and we look forward to seeing you there. This is a unique event where IT planners, decision makers, and administrators gather to share knowledge and exchange ideas. FAEDS is the only organization that includes IT professionals for all of K-20 in the State of Florida. Our membership includes CIOs and IT Directors representing Florida's public schools, community colleges, universities and the FL Department of Education. FCITL is also participating as a supporting organization. As many of you have experienced, it is a conference you can not miss, as it provides tremendous value to corporate partners in the form of unlimited networking opportunities. The FAEDS conference has grown significantly over the past several years. Building upon our past success, we want to continue to improve not only the conference but the overall experience for all members and corporate partners. This year, we are planning an exciting and memorable conference again at the beautiful Caribe Royale Orlando All-Suites Resort and Convention Center. We hope you will continue to be a committed and significant part of this event! Below are some of the highlights of this year’s event: • Centralized Conference Location Orlando is a convenient location for your travel planning and the Caribe Royale Resort is close to everything. The hotel features spacious and gracious all suite accommodations and a tropical outside atmosphere. Along with several restaurants and lounges on the property, the Resort also offers a fine-dining restaurant, the “Venetian Room”, which has recently been awarded the prestigious AAA Four Diamond rating. Please check their website at http://www.cariberoyale.com/ for more details on the resort. • Signature Social Event This conference features many attractive social events. Through thematic night events, scheduled lunches and social hours, the corporate partners are offered high visibility and exceptional opportunities for product discussions in a relaxed and fun atmosphere which allows you to maximize your interaction with conference attendees. • Great Sponsorship Opportunity The FAEDS annual conference offers corporate partners the opportunity to market your products and services at a much lower cost than many conferences, while promising a greater market lead in return! We look forward to another year of increased member growth and participation in the annual conference. Our members are engaged in transforming the education enterprise through the innovative use of technology. In order to better accommodate our corporate partners’ demand, FAEDS is once again offering sponsorship opportunities in five categories with “Premier” as the highest sponsorship level. Each sponsorship level and its corresponding benefits are listed and described in the registration materials available online at www.faeds.org. Please be aware that the signature events, featured sessions and special showcases are in short supply and will fill quickly. Preference will be given to those who commit to sponsorships first. Please remember to register for your space and sponsorships early. Because of demand, sponsorship of events must be secured through a signed sponsor form and returned to us via U.S. Mail or fax. Date and time of receipt will determine the order in which requests are fulfilled. Thank you for your continued support of the Florida Association of Educational Data Systems!
