Conference Exhibitor Information
Thank you for exhibiting at the 2024 TCOLE Conference. Exhibitors have the unique opportunity to share information about their company with the state’s top law enforcement trainers. In previous years, we have had 1000+ register for this conference.
We are working diligently to ensure that our Exhibitors have as much time with the attendees as possible. We are opening the exhibit hall early allowing exhibitors time to set up before registration begins (2:00pm) In addition to having all breaks in the exhibit area, there will be an Exhibitor Happy Hour on Monday. In the attempt to make our Exhibitors visible to all attendees, we will be conducting registration in the exhibit area.
