We are pleased to announce sponsorship opportunities for the 2026 Eastern Seaboard Apprenticeship Conference (ESAC). ESAC is made up of apprenticeship representatives from 22 states and the District of Columbia. ESAC is expected to attract about 350 conferees to the Embassy Suites in St. Augustine, FL from May 18-22, 2026.
To make ESAC more affordable than the average conference, we seek contributions to defray the costs of receptions, luncheons, conference paraphernalia, and printing. We respectfully request that your organization sponsor or co-sponsor an event to help us make this year’s conference at the Embassy Suites the best ESAC ever! Co-sponsoring is a cost effective way to show support and yet share the costs with other locals or organizations to get the message of apprenticeship solidarity across loud and clear.

We encourage you to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to showcase your program or organization. Remember that all these events can be co-sponsored and that any contribution will help to make this a great conference!
