The registration fee for employers to attend the fair is $400. Registration includes one six foot table, two chairs, lunch, employer gifts, and parking for two recruiters. Additional recruiter spots can be added to the registration fee for $25 apiece, for up to two recruiters. If a company would like to bring more than a total of four recruiters, they will be asked to purchase a second booth at full price, as long as space is available. We will also be able to offer a limited number of booths with access to electrical outlets for an additional $25.

Employer notices regarding Connections Fair registration and fees

Refund dates and deadlines:

• To request a full refund, I must notify the Fenn Co-op Office no later than 1/31/25.
• To request my registration fee be applied to a future fair, I must notify the Fenn Co-op Office no later than 2/10/25. I also acknowledge that I will be charged a $25 fee to move my registration. 
• To request a partial refund, I must notify the Fenn Co-op Office no later than 2/14/25.
• If I do not notify the Fenn Co-op Office that my company will no longer be attending the fair by the dates stated above, I acknowledge that my company will be responsible to pay the full registration fee. I acknowledge that failure to pay the registration fee will prevent my company from participating in any future connections fairs and/or events with the Fenn Co-op Program, until the outstanding registration fee has been paid in full. This includes the cost of additional recruiters, or access to electrical outlets at my company's booth.  

Fair add-ons and additional fees:

If I have chosen to add additional recruiters, and/or have requested a booth with access to an electrical outlet:

• My company is responsible to pay all additional fees based on the add-ons I chose on this registration form, or that my company uses during the fair. Failure to pay these fees may result in my company not being able to register for future Connections Fair and/or participate in future Fenn Co-op events.
• If any of the additional recruiters I have added to my company's registration are no longer able to attend, I must notify the Fenn Co-op Office no later than 2/14/25 to be refunded/not charged for those recruiters. 
• Additional recruiter fees are for every additional recruiter my company plans to bring to the fair, over the two that are included in the registration fee. This includes recruiters who are only attending part of the fair and/or recruiters who are "switching out" with another recruiter at the fair. I acknowledge that my company will be responsible for paying the $25 fee for every recruiter who checks in to the fair over the amount already accounted/paid for on our registration form. 
• Electrical outlets will be assigned based on a first come first serve basis. If electrical outlets are over sold, I acknowledge my company may lose our electrical outlet access but will be refunded the electrical access fee.
