CONFERENCE INFORMATION
The 2015 National Fall Leadership Conferences
(NFLCs) are designed to help you CONNECT
in the coming year! The board of directors,
national officers, and national staff welcome
you to this year’s NFLCs. You have demonstrated your commitment to
leadership excellence by being here this weekend. Maximize your investment by
participating in as many workshops and other activities as you can.
CONFERENCE HEADQUARTERS
Conference staff will be available in Meeting Room 3 on Friday and Saturday
during regular conference hours.
NAME BADGES
Conference badges must be worn to all conference activities, including the
Blue Jeans for Babies Dance. Requests for replacement badges may be made at
the registration desk or in conference headquarters. There is a $5 charge for all
replacement name badges. This fee must be paid in full onsite.
TRAVEL ETIQUETTE
If traveling by taxi, ask for the fare before departure. Keep change handy
for bellmen and doormen tips and similar situations. Generally, a 15% tip is
appropriate for servers and cab drivers for good service.
CHAPERONES
Chaperones should enforce dress code and curfews, ensure that students attend
conference activities, and follow common safety practices.
MEMBERS WITH DISABILITIES
Members with disabilities add an important dimension to the organization.
FBLA‑PBL is committed to working with these members to ensure that they
receive maximum benefit from the conference activities. Contact a representative
of the national staff if you have particular needs or requirements.
CURFEW
Delegates at FBLA‑PBL conferences are expected to follow the published curfew
times. This requirement is designed both to protect individual delegates and to
respect other guests in the hotels we are using for our meetings. Hotel security
will enforce the published curfews, which are to be interpreted as being the time
by which members should be in their own rooms and quiet for the night.
PROHIBITED ITEMS
• noisemakers (horns, clappers, etc.) are not allowed at the general sessions
• hats, including novelty hats, are prohibited by the FBLA-PBL dress code
• selfie sticks, cameras, cell phones, and posters/signs are not allowed on stage

FBLA-PBL CODE OF CONDUCT
FBLA‑PBL members have an excellent reputation. Your conduct at every
FBLA‑PBL function should make a positive contribution to extending
that reputation. Listed here are rules of conduct for FBLA-PBL national
conferences. All delegates are expected to:
1. Behave in a courteous and respectful manner, refraining from
language and actions that might bring discredit upon themselves,
their school, other delegates, advisers, or upon FBLA‑PBL.
2. Obey all local, state, and federal laws.
3. Avoid conduct not conducive to an educational conference.
Such conduct includes, but is not limited to, actions disrupting
the businesslike atmosphere, association with nonconference
individuals, or activities that endanger self or others (running in the
general sessions, standing on chairs, using laser pointers during
workshops, bodysurfing at dances, etc.)
4. Keep your advisers informed of your activities and whereabouts at all
times. Accidents, injuries, and illnesses must be reported to the local
or state advisers immediately.
5. Avoid alcoholic beverages (for those under 21 years of age) and
controlled or illegal substances of any form. These items must not be
used or possessed at any time, or under any circumstances. Use or
possession of such substances may subject the delegate to criminal
prosecution.
6. Act as guests of the hotel and conference center. Participants must
obey the rules of these facilities. The facilities have the right to
ask a member or members to leave. Do not throw anything out of
windows or over balconies. Do not run down hallways. Noise should
be kept at a reasonable volume, especially in the hotels.
Remember there are other guests in the hotels who have rights as well. Trash
(this includes pizza boxes, bottles, cans, etc.) must be placed in the proper
receptacles and not left on guest room or meeting room floors. Individuals
or chapters responsible for damages to any property or furnishings will
be responsible for its repair or replacement. Local and state advisers are
responsible for the supervision of delegate conduct.
Disregarding or Violating the Code of Conduct
Delegates who disregard or violate this code will be subject to disciplinary
action, including, but not limited to, forfeiture of privileges to attend further
events, confinement to your hotel room, dismissal from the conference, and
being sent home at your own expense. Parents and/or guardians will be
notified and FBLA‑PBL reserves the right to notify law enforcement officials.
