Reasons To Host An NCAPPA Conference Your time to shine:

• Showcase unique & outstanding characteristics of your campus

• Demonstrate capabilities of Facilities Department staff

You are not alone:

• Conference Committee will be supported every step of the way

• NCAPPA Board of Directors are ready to assist with information, planning and education

• Conference budget supports itself, all goods/services used for conference are paid by NCAPPA

Your employees are worth it!

• Comprehensive and cost-effective educational and networking opportunities in your own back yard—big return on a low cost investment (no travel or lodging fees when the meeting is on your campus)

Rewarding experience:

• Make face-to-face connections with colleagues from other institutions to share ideas

• Generate new business leads with business partners or other outside vendors with services and products that can benefit your institution

• Develop skills from serving on Conference Committee by performing functions outside your day-to-day job responsibilities

• Great team building for staff when everyone is working toward common goal

Celebrate success!

• After the conference is over, you will look back on the positive experiences and be glad you did it!

Setting a Date and Location for Conference 1. Review your school calendar for the best dates to assure the conference will not present

hardships on your school or physical plant operations. Dates chosen are usually school’s Spring Break, or week after Spring Graduation. If the event is to be held on campus, especially during Spring Break, let campus police/security know about your plans.

2. Also consider if any other large events are scheduled in your local area that may affect booking hotels and traffic congestion for your event.

3. Determine how long the conference will be: (This will need to be discussed with the NCAPPA Board)

a. Golf Tournament & Service Project (One day or ½ day)

b. 20 – 25 Educational Sessions, Tours, Panel Discussions, etc. (1.5 days)

c. Evening Activities (determine how many you will have)

4. Location of Conference – will it be on school campus, convention center, etc. Will need to choose locations that are easy to walk from Hall of Resources, to Educational Sessions, to meals, parking, etc. NOTE: If working with a smaller university, may have to limit registration to accommodate room sizes

5. Determine location of Hall of Resources first. This will be the key to how large the conference will be. Ideally, you want an area that will hold a minimum of 65 booths for our business partners. Booths are 8x8 except for Gold Sponsors which require a 10x10 space booth. Will also need to provide power to 75% of the booths. (See section on Hall of Resources for more details)

6. Location of Educational Sessions – Educational sessions are usually on a 4-5 track session for each time slot. Four to five classrooms will need to hold a minimum of 60-75 people per session. Will need to have a large room for general sessions (400-500) - this can be an auditorium or dining hall.

7. Location of Meals – At least one to two meals in the Hall of Resources is preferred. This can be a box lunch, continental breakfast, etc. Spending time with our business partners is a key to a successful conference. Other meals/evening activity will need to be in an area that can accommodate at least 400 people. Contact caterers early on to get on their schedule.

Parking Areas: Will need to work with your school’s transportation department to block areas for parking, will there be a charge for parking, parking passes required, etc. Will business partners be able to unload booth materials at Hall of Resources, or will they have to transport across parking area. NOTE: If a parking deck is designated for vendor parking, you may need to identify a surface parking lot for vendors with trailers and large vans/trucks.

8. Establish a host/planning committee approximately two years prior to your conference date. Plan to have members of your planning committee attend the annual conference prior to yours. This will give them an opportunity to observe the process and ask specific questions of people responsible for events similar to those that they will be responsible for. It is recommended to have an individual team leader responsible for each category of the event, such as:

a. Educational Sessions/Tour of facilities b. Hall of Resources for business partners c. Meal Planning d. Evening Activity e. Registration f. Transportation g. Financial

9. Contact hotels regarding available dates, discount rates for government employees

(NCAAPA Board will work with you on estimates for number of rooms to block)

10. If you plan to have school officials, or guests at the opening session, make sure you have added the information to their calendars.

See attached NCAPPA Countdown Timeline

Planning a Conference Budget:

1. Revenue for the conference:

a. Participant Registration Fees ($100 for two days, $75 for one day) b. Business Partners:

i. Gold Level Sponsorship ($5,000) ii. Silver Level Sponsorship ($2,500) iii. Bronze Level Sponsorship ($1,500) iv. Scholarship Sponsorship ($1,000) v. Golf Tournament Sponsorship ($500)

c. School Participants registration fee for golf ($50) d. School Participants registration fee for service project ($25)

Once the Hall of Resources has been determined, we can begin planning the revenues for the conference based on number of booths that will be available. NOTE: Business partners are not allowed to sponsor individual events, meals, or door prizes at NCAPPA Conference. All expenditures for the conference are paid by NCAPPA from revenues received from conference registrations fees and Business partner sponsorships

2. Expenditures for the conference:

a. Based on projected revenues, you can begin to estimate expenditures for the conference.

b. Charge for venue location c. Catering – need estimates per person for each meal, break planned d. Materials – signs, banners, printing fees, guest speaker ribbons for badges, conference

registration packet, etc. e. Rentals for pipe & drape for Hall of Resources f. Rentals for tables & chairs g. Cost for volunteer shirts h. Cost for prizes given away at conference

Note: Any prize totaling $600 or greater will need to have a 1099 Misc. Income form completed and sent to recipient & IRS (NCAPPA Board will handle this)

i. Fee for parking and/or bus rentals to transport people to evening event, etc. j. Honorariums for speakers, guest

See next page for sample budget: NOTE: Estimates for conference budget will need to be reported to the NCAPPA Board

for approval and guidance. Estimates will need to be given six months prior to event and updated on a weekly base until event. NCAPPA Board Conference Liaison will assist with final head count for meals & breaks.

Hall of Resources

The Hall of Resources is the focal point of our annual conference. We like to include several designed times for school participants to visit our business partners in the Hall of Resources. This area will also be the focal point of awarding prizes and if possible, serving breaks and some meals. If breaks/meals are served in Hall of Resources, will need to have cocktail tables throughout the area for people to use while eating. Will need to have a portable microphone & speaker system in the Hall of Resources. ●Once you have the location of the Hall of Resources, you will need to create a layout showing the booths and locations for refreshments/meals in the area. ● When planning the Hall of Resources layout for vendor booths make sure the "hall" between booth rows are eight foot wide (or whatever your city Fire Marshall requires). ●Indicate areas where you will be able to provide electricity. About 75% of our business partners request power at their booths. ●Contact company to provide pipe & drape on sides & back of each booth. Will need a 6ft table and two chairs for each booth ●Have your Safety Office check the Hall of Resources to make sure the drapes surrounding vendor booths do not cover fire alarms, fire extinguishers or strobe lights. ●Gold, Silver, Bronze & Scholarship Level Sponsors should be placed in high traffic locations within the Hall of Resources. Only the Gold Sponsors are given a larger (10x10) booth. Note: This area will need to be secured & locked at the end of each day. Also, will need

volunteers to patrol area while business partners are at meals, so that no equipment displayed is removed from Hall of Resources.

Sample layouts are attached. The NCAPPA Director of Vendor Relations will work closely with your school on business

partner registration and placement of each participant. Placement of booths will be based on Sponsorship level, order of registration/payment and if power is needed.

NCAPPA Board will send out registration information to business partners six months prior to

the conference. Business partners will be given the opportunity to register for a booth, sponsorship level and golf sponsorship. Once all the slots are filled, registration will close and business partners will be placed on a waiting list for cancellations or additional space for a booth.

NCAPPA Board will forward registration information to your school so you can create name tags

and registration packets for business partners Two months prior to the conference, your school will need to send an email to registered

business partners giving them details on booth location, logistics for unloading and parking, etc. (see sample emails) NOTE: If a parking deck is designated for vendor parking, you may need to identify a surface parking lot for vendors with trailers and large vans/trucks.

Page 10: Planning Guidebook - NCAPPA · 8. Establish a host/planning committee approximately two years prior to your conference date. Plan to have members of your planning committee attend

9

NOTE: If possible, allow business partners the option to set up the day before, or give

them three hours on the day of conference to set up before participants visit Hall of Resources

You may be asked by business partners if they may ship their materials for the booth to your campus prior to the event. In the past, we have told business partners that we are unable to receive materials prior to the conference, and that they will need to ship the materials to a local rep or to their hotel. Business Partners may ask if they can have a drawing for a prize at their booth – this is not allowed at an NCAPPA Conference. All prizes must be donated to or purchased by NCAPPA. NCAPPA will hold numerous drawings during the conference for door prizes and a grand prize drawing at the close of the conference. You will need to have a separate registration table for business partners, preferably at the entrance to the Hall of Resources. This registration table will need to have (4) rotating volunteers stationed at this location the entire time during the conference. It will be your point of contact for questions or situations that may arise during the conference.

1. Business partners will be given a name badge & one folder per company with the following information inside:

a. Tri-fold agenda b. Campus Map c. Layout of Hall of Resources & business partners d. Raffle Ticket for free booth drawing (business partners are not eligible for door

prizes given away at the conference, only school participants) e. Bio/abstracts of educational sessions f. Participant list g. Survey of conference (see attached samples)

2. At the registration table, please have a box for Grand Prize drawing, completed surveys & recycled name tags

NOTE: Business Partners tend to change the names of people that will be attending

conference. You may want to have a label maker at the registration table for name changes. Also, for each booth registration, business partners are allowed two participant registrations, if they have more people attending, they will need to register them as a participant and pay the $100 (both days) $75 (one day) fee. This information will be noted on the registration spreadsheet.

Conference Theme: As you begin planning for the conference, decide if you would like a theme for the conference. This can be used on promotional flyers, web site, conference banner, etc. Conference Agenda: Once the conference dates have been established, you will need to start working on an agenda for the event. The NCAPPA Board will work with you on the agenda to make sure events flow together and time is allowed for people to get from one event to another, meals, breaks, activities, tours, etc. See sample agendas Breakdown of Conference Activities: (Note: This is just a general breakdown and suggestions – activities may be combined, conference usually requires two full days of events that may spread over three days or just two days) First Day: (Half Day of activities)

11

Educational Sessions: The NCAPPA Director of Education will put out a “Call for Presentations” eight months prior to the conference. We are looking for presentations in the following areas: Maintenance, Housekeeping, Utilities, Grounds, Sustainability, & General. This is also a time for you to showcase your campus with tours of areas you would like to highlight. We can schedule one to two time slots for these tours. In the past, we have also had panel Q&A sessions for the various categories in facilities. Your input into the educational sessions is very valuable, so please let the Director of Education know your suggestions. Also, encourage your staff to submit presentations for the conference. Once all the presentations have been submitted, the Education Committee will review and select the presentations for the conference. Depending on how many presentations are submitted, there will be 20-25 sessions offered. Based on the number of sessions, you will need to provide (4-5) classrooms seating between 60-75 for each session.

1. Rooms will need computer/projector access & microphone 2. A Room Liaison will need to be assigned to each room to make sure sessions stay on

schedule, and speakers are introduced & presented with honorarium (see list of duties) 3. Will need to have a technical support person on standby to assist with any problems the

speakers may have with computer/projector/microphone issues 4. An evaluation form for each session will need to be completed by the participates (see

attached)

Page 13: Planning Guidebook - NCAPPA · 8. Establish a host/planning committee approximately two years prior to your conference date. Plan to have members of your planning committee attend

12

Conference Registration: The NCAPPA Board will set up the conference registration at our web site and emails will be sent to the host school with participant and business partner registrations. The board will handle all the invoices and payments for registration except for on-site registrations. You will need to have some registration forms (see attached) and laptop set up so people can access NCAPPA’s paypal account to make credit card payments. You may also receive checks & cash payments at the conference. Participant Conference Registration table with four people will be needed for participant registration. This should be in a central location close to where the opening session/Hall of Resources will take place. Make sure you have plenty of signage directing people to registration location and to the next area you want them to go to after registration

Participants will be given a name badge & folder with the following information inside:

a. Tri-fold agenda b. Campus Map c. Layout of Hall of Resources & business partners d. Bingo Card to have business partners sign for grand prize drawing (Make sure

staff explain the bingo card will need to be signed by all the business partners before placing in Grand Prize Drawing Box)

e. Raffle Ticket (for all prizes awarded during the conference (except grand prize) Note: NCAPPA Board members are not eligible for prizes awarded)

f. Bio/abstracts of educational sessions g. Participant list h. Survey of conference (see attached samples)

3. At the registration table, please have a box for completed surveys & recycled name tags

4. On the final day registration time slot, you may want to merge your registration tables with business partner registration table and only have one central point of contact for Q&A. You will need to decide where you want Speakers to register (participant registration or business partner registration) Each speaker will be given a name badge with speaker ribbon on it & conference packet. Volunteers will need to direct Speakers to Educational Session location. We ask that speakers planning to attend other events at the conference pay the registration fee. If they are only attending their session, no registration fee is required.

NOTE: It has been suggested to make the name of participant/business partners in Large Letters for easy viewing on the name tags

Page 14: Planning Guidebook - NCAPPA · 8. Establish a host/planning committee approximately two years prior to your conference date. Plan to have members of your planning committee attend

13

Volunteers: Start early and recruit lots of people to help with the conference. In addition to your core team that will head up each of the areas we discussed earlier, you will need the following:

1. Volunteers to direct traffic & parking 2. Volunteers for both registration tables 3. Volunteers to help business partners unload/set up booths/place large number sign at

each booth/place sponsorship sign at designed booths 4. Volunteers to assist people in getting to the right building, session, etc. 5.

14

Catering: Make sure you book caterers well in advance for the conference. Some schools are required to use catering services on campus, others may choose outside caterers. When planning meals, please keep in mind to have options for vegetarians or people with food allergies NCAPPA Board Conference Liaison will help you determine the final head count for each event. We have found that in the past, the numbers tend to be higher for the noon meal than for the breakfast or evening meals. Business partners will participate in all the meals & events with school participants; so make sure they are included with the head count and table set up for each meal/event. Breakfast Meals: This can be a sit down event, or a continental breakfast in the Hall of

Resources with business partners Lunch Meals: This can be a sit down event, or a box lunch in the Hall of Resources Evening Activity: This is usually a reception/sit down event on or off campus – NCAPPA

Board will work with school on this event. If beer/wine is a part of activity, then (2) beer/wine tickets per person will need to be included in registration packet. Also, you will need to check with school on written permission to allow alcoholic beverages to be served and requirements for bartenders at the function. If event is held off campus, transportation will need to be provided from campus to event.

Breaks: Breaks should be light and simple snacks. Make sure you include coffee (reg/decaf) water, and sodas. Depending on the times between breakfast, lunch, & evening meal, some breaks can be eliminated. In the Hall of Resources, you may want to have light refreshments, especially coffee available for business partners at all times when hall is open. If a sit down event is chosen, some type of program will be included in this time slot (NCAPPA Business Meeting (installation of new board members), Director of Vendor Relations recognizing business partners and sponsors, recognition of scholarship recipients, etc. or a guest speaker) Please make sure that room chosen for sit down meals can accommodate 400 plus people. Will also need podium, microphone, LCD projector and raised platform. Note: If working with a smaller university that cannot accommodate 400 plus people for

meals, or general sessions, we will limit registration to accommodate the maximum seating available.

15

Recycled Items: In order to be good stewards of NCAPPA funds and materials, we try to recycle items each year. 1. Lanyards and badge holders – use generic items that can be used each year 2. Sponsorship Banners – we have several “Gold”, “Silver”, “Bronze”, and “Scholarship”

banners that are placed inside sponsors booths during the conference. 3. Directional signs that can be used each year After the Conference: Congratulations! You have successfully hosted an Annual NCAPPA Conference. Recognize/Reward your volunteers and helpers to show your appreciation for all their hard work and time sacrificed. Send registration information to NCAPPA Board (please make sure you note on registration spreadsheet payments received on site and list of attendees that did not show up for the conference) Send digital photographs taken at the conference to NCAPPA Board Collect all class surveys and conference surveys and send to NCAPPA Board Send all conference invoices to NCAPPA Secretary/Treasurer for payment/reimbursement. Note: Some schools set up a discretionary account to handle conference expenditures. Copies of the invoices are sent to NCAPPA, and NCAPPA reimburses the school for conference expenditures. All materials that can be recycled are given to the next year’s host school.

including the built environment. Research shows that the learning or living environment has a dramatic outcome on the

student’s achievement. These evidence based developments include the interior finishes process; therefore, the student

is impacted with a positive or negative outcome based on those decisions. Our presentation will also include how

students make their decisions through the lens of sustainability. Sustainability is a focal point on campuses today and the

relevance of campus programs and student participation is becoming more elevated. The trends on campus are

Grounds Session 2 - 11:00 AM – 11:50 AM - Room 117

Capitalizing on Spring Semester Move-out – Recycling & Reuse

Ben Kunka, UNC Greensboro

ABSTRACT: Every May there is a tidal wave of waste on campus. Along with professors preparing for their summer away from their

office and design students overfilling waste containers with their latest and bulky semester long project, there are the

residence hall dumpsters that are brimming over with valuable items from their hastily vacated rooms. The predictability

of these waste streams affords us with many opportunities to potentially generate additional revenue, demonstrate

superior customer service and bring up our waste diversion metrics. Logistical solutions and promotional strategies will

be addressed. This presentation will showcase the successful recycling and reuse programs that occur at the end of the

spring semester and touch on the nagging issues UNCG still has in coping with this challenging time of year.

BIO: Ben Kunka is the Operations Manager, Office of Waste Reduction and Recycling at UNC Greensboro. Ben has familial

ties to UNC Greensboro — his great-grandmother, grandmother, mother and wife were graduates of UNCG. Ben holds a

BS in Natural Resource Management from UNC Asheville and soon will graduate from the APPA Institute. Most of his

time outside of work is spent with his 2 year old daughter, librarian wife and 3 cats. Ben strives to make recycling on

campus easy and convenient, so make Ben’s day and call him with recycling questions or for any waste/recycling needs

you might have.
