CASE Conference

EXHIBITOR AND SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Providence, Rhode IslandThe Council of Administrators of Special Education (CASE) is an international nonprofit professional organization serving approximately 6,000 members. CASE advances special education through leadership, professional learning, policy, and advocacy. Each year, CASE brings together the nation’s most dedicated and influential special education leaders-district directors, state administrators, policy leaders, and decision-makers responsible for shaping services for students with disabilities across the country. The CASE Conference is more than a typical event, it is an international gathering of special education leaders who drive educational systems forward. The CASE Conference delivers an unparalleled professional learning experience designed for approximately 1,500 special education leaders. This premier event blends national thought leadership, timely legal and policy updates, research-to-practice sessions, and practical implementation strategies that attendees can immediately bring back to their districts. Beyond the learning, the conference fosters meaningful networking, collaboration, and peer-to-peer problem solving—creating a powerful space where leaders connect, reflect, and strengthen their impact on students, staff, and systems worldwide.
 
As an organization, CASE greatly values our corporate partners and actively seeks new ways to connect CASE members to the resources that will support special education leaders, staff, students, and families! CASE sponsors understand that special education leadership requires innovation, compliance expertise, and trusted solutions. CASE provides the platform where those solutions are discovered.
 
CASE partners are not vendors – they are collaborators in advancing the field of special education. As a corporate partner, you will:
  • Connect with Decision-Makers: Engage directly with those influencing special education services and resources.
  • Showcase Your Solutions: Present products and services that support compliance, equity, and student success.
  • Expand Your Visibility: Gain recognition through event materials, digital communications, and the Academy app.
  • Join the Collective Voice: Stay informed on the latest legal updates and leadership practices alongside national experts.
Corporate Partners at the CASE Conference play an essential role in supporting and strengthening special education leadership. As a CASE partner, you contribute solutions, expertise, and resources that help leaders navigate complex systems and improve outcomes for students.
Corporate Partners Contribute by:
  • Supporting Informed Decision-Making: Share research-based tools and practical solutions that help leaders make sound instructional, operational, and compliance decisions.
  • Strengthening Systems and Practices: Provide resources that enhance IEP development, discipline processes, Section 504 implementation, staffing, service delivery, and student supports.
  • Advancing Equity and Access for Students with Disabilities: Demonstrate how your work helps remove barriers, promote inclusive practices, and support equitable access to high-quality services.
  • Building Leadership Capacity: Offer tools, training, and expertise that empower leaders to act confidently, proactively, and defensibly.
  • Engaging in Meaningful Dialogue: Connect with special education leaders to understand their challenges, share insights, and build trusted, collaborative relationships.
