Vendor Partnership Registration

2025–26 Vendor Partner Opportunities

We’re excited to unveil our 2025–26 Vendor Partner Packages—crafted to deliver unmatched value, maximum visibility, and meaningful connections with decision-makers across California’s independent study community.

Expanded Exposure

This year, we’ve extended your “showtime” to begin at our lively Welcome Celebration on Wednesday, February 4th (4:30–6:00 PM). Vendors can set up early, network with attendees as they arrive, and schedule one-on-one appointments before the official program even begins.

Premium Pitch Opportunity

For an additional fee, select vendors can “take the floor for a two-minute spiel” during the Welcome Celebration to showcase products and services in front of an engaged audience. (Details available in the registration dropdown menu.)

Unparalleled Access to Decision-Makers

Our attendees, leaders, and influencers in independent study are on-site, ready to engage with you. Between the Welcome Celebration, the dedicated vendor day during Best Practices sessions, (we’ve shortened the Best Practices session day ), intentionally designed to allow more vendor interaction, you’ll have prime time to connect, build relationships, and close deals.

Host Your Own Event

Last year, vendor-hosted cocktail receptions were a huge success, drawing in strong attendance and buzz. This year, we’ll actively promote your hosted event in our conference marketing, ensuring visibility and attendance.

Why Partner?

Because this isn’t just booth time—it’s a high-value platform to showcase your brand, generate leads, and build lasting partnerships with the schools and educators shaping independent study statewide.

Don’t miss this chance to maximize your ROI and position your company as a trusted leader in the independent study space.

    Table Assignment

    Tables will be pre-assigned and labeled with your company name. All tables will be draped. Partners are encouraged to have “interest cards” at their table to collect contact information from participants interested in follow-up after the conference. Due to legal constraints, CCIS cannot provide an “Attendee List.”

    We appreciate the donation of a door prize (book, gift certificate, etc.) to be awarded during a general session at the end of the conference (approximately 4:30 p.m.). Partners who donate a prize will participate in our Passport Program and receive special mention in the conference program.

    When a conference attendee visits your table, please initial their passport. Attendees who visit all tables and complete their passport will be eligible for the “Partner Passport Door Prize Drawing” at the end of the conference. The Passport Program has been very popular and will increase traffic to your table.

    About CCIS

    The California Consortium for Independent Study is a professional organization for educational providers serving students from kindergarten through high school in public school districts, county offices, and charter schools throughout the state. Educators work with students of diverse interests and abilities, requiring materials that are on-grade level, advanced, and remedial. Attendees are eager to learn about resources to help prepare students for the high school exit examination, the Common Core Standards, PE standards, and online course design and delivery. Schools often have computer labs or classroom computers, and many districts have installed interactive technologies and software. Independent study is an alternative education option that has grown significantly in recent years. Our annual conferences have attracted between 300–450 attendees each.
