Planning
Your Conference
The conference facility’s goal is to provide
complete conference support to all activities that are direct members
of the Department of Defense. The facility provides assistance
with conference space, administrative and audio visual requirements,
billeting, catering services, and offer Video Telephone Conferencing. Our
staff is pleased to offer full-service conference planning or consultation
to ensure maximum productivity and an enjoyable stay in Pensacola.
As the Conference
Planner, you will work closely with the Conference Center staff
to ensure that your conference is planned out in advance. When
you have a date set
for your conference, a telephone reservation can be used to secure
your room/s until
a signed contract is received. To
prevent an unauthorized commitment, funding
information (copy of DD-1155 or credit card number) should
be received two weeks
prior to your conference.
The
Conference Center is a self-supporting activity and charges fees
to use the facility.
Please contact the Conference Faciity
for room rates and Video Teleconferencing rates.
Once you have contacted the Conference Facility
and reserved your room/s by phone,
you will be
faxed a contract. Please read the
information carefully, sign, and fax back within
seven days. Your
reservation will be confirmed as soon as your contract is received.
A
follow-up call will be made several weeks prior to your conference. Should
your conference cancel, you must notify the Conference Facility at
least 10 working days before the conference
to avoid being charged
a cancellation fee. The fee will not exceed 50% of the room charge.

conference, you're ready to
