JEN Exhibit Hall Sound Control Policy
(effective January 2018)
JEN is a conference for music educators, students, professionals and music businesses. The music businesses will conduct their business in an Exhibit hall in a leased booth space, during specific booth hours. Part of that business is trying out the music products; however, there are parameters by which this can be done within the booth space while providing a safe and business friendly environment on the conference floor. JEN is committed to providing a successful environment for its members to do business and the following outlines how this intends to be accomplished.
The following policy must be adhered to and will be enforced by JEN at all times throughout the conference:
JEN Conference Policy Enforcement Procedure
Steps JEN Takes to Help Support a Positive Musical Experience in a Business Environment for Everybody
Steps Exhibitors Can Take to Help Support a Positive Musical Experience in a Business Environment for Everyone
Steps Attendees Can Take to Help Support a Positive Musical Experience in a Business Environment for Everybody
Performance vs. Demonstration
After choosing the zone, JEN will then assign the booth location based on the following criteria:
