Sponsorship Guidelines
#COSMA2018
The 2018 COSMA Conference will be held on the University of North Florida campus in Jacksonville, FL, February 8-9, 2018. As COSMA’s fourth conference, attendance is expected to be close to 120 participants, consisting of faculty members and students from COSMA member institutions and individual members from non-member institutions primarily from North America and New Zealand. Jacksonville is a destination easily accessible from most of the east coast, midwest and south and was chosen based on feedback past conferences and UNF’s interest in hosting. In the future, conferences will be held in other locations to attract new members and accommodate our Western, Northwestern and International members.
 
Why the COSMA Conference?
Our conference attracts faculty and students interested in networking and with a special interest in sharing best practices and pedagogical innovations. Faculty and practitioners mingle and students are equal partners in sharing information. In addition, sport management programs can learn about the accreditation process, how to prepare and receive specific guidance for their programs.
 
COSMA offers two levels of sponsorship that allow you to capture attendees’ attention in a variety of ways, depending on the specific needs of your organization: The “Supporting” level and the “Participating” level. Alternative packages can be tailored to meet particular objectives.
