Call for Presentations
Thank you for your interest in presenting at the 2009 CAEYC Conference. The Call for Presentations is now closed. CAEYC received nearly 500 proposals for review. Applicants will be notified by October regarding the status of their proposals.

2008 Recap
Nearly 4,500 paid attendees gathered in Long Beach, April 3-5, to renew their commitment and passion for working with young children while connecting with peers, colleagues and friends. There were many powerful, informative sessions among 300+ education workshops offered, including keynote speakers, Chip Heath and Richard Louv.

The Exhibit Hall was bustling with energy as attendees visited 142 exhibitors, the largest CAEYC Trade Show since 2004. This year’s conference also included some new opportunities, including the Accreditation Lounge and Affiliate development workshops.
Many thanks to all who participated and especially those who shared their thoughts in the conference evaluation. A special thank you goes to the dedicated members of CAEYC’s Conference Committee, which created a wonderful event that will provide Footsteps to the Future in early care and education for many years to come.
