ACPA C3 supports sustainability. In this spirit, we encourage the
use of technology in the communication between employers and
candidates as much as possible (for example, thank you notes and
follow-up information). C3 closes precisely at the advertised times
and facility lights will dim at the end of the day to indicate closing.
On-Site C3 Registration
On-site registration is available at C3, located in the Baltimore Convention
Center, Level 100 (Hall F and Swing Hall), during the posted
hours of operation. If you did not pre-register a position or your
candidacy, you are welcome to do so anytime while C3 is open.
Orientation and Professional Development Workshops
Orientation and workshops are offered for both candidates and
employers. We recommend that everyone participating in C3 attend.
Orientation sessions are designed to help candidates and employers
take full advantage of the services available. Daily workshops
and Professional Development Snapshot sessions are offered by the
Commission for Career Development. These sessions purposefully
assist candidates and employers with a variety of issues associated with
the job search process. The complete listing of all orientations and
workshops can be found in the daily program listings in this book and
online in the C3 section of the convention Web site www.convention.
