It is with great excitement we share with you that the Minnesota School Counselor Association 2023 Conference will be held November 5 through 6 at the Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center in Mankato.

Approximately 300 participants (Licensed Professional K-12 School Counselors, Post-Secondary School Counselors, Graduate Students, Exhibitors from the educational systems, as well as businesses from the private and public sector) from the entire state of Minnesota will be in attendance.

The Minnesota School Counselors Association (MSCA) conference continues to train and educate Licensed School Counselors with the vision to advance their level of expertise as well as help them to collaboratively better serve, support and educate students and families. The conference is held over multiple days and attendees will have the opportunity to select from over 40 different breakout sessions as well as be educated and inspired by illuminating keynote speakers.

To host an amazing event, the Minnesota School Counselor Association is seeking your participation as a conference exhibitor, sponsor, and/or donor.

  • The cost for an exhibitor booth is $500 through September 1, 2023 (price increases to $650 through September 28).
  • Our sponsorship opportunities range from $250 to $5,000.
  • Donations for our registrant “swag bags” and prizes for games would also be welcome!

Your support of students and families in your communities is invaluable! We are looking forward to highlighting partners from the state of Minnesota.

If you have questions about being an exhibitor or sponsor, please feel free to contact us by email [email protected] or call 612-428-3203 (M-F, 9 am to 5 pm); staff will reply directly and/or forward your inquiry to the appropriate conference committee volunteer.

Sincerely,

MSCA 2023 Conference Planning Volunteers
