A Note on Housing: Beware of Solicitations from Unauthorized Vendors

A gold circular logo with black textDescription automatically generated Please be aware that Connections Housing is the ONLY approved, official housing vendor for FETC® attendees, speakers, and exhibitors. We understand that unauthorized housing companies may contact you and advertise cheaper rates or may imply or claim an affiliation with FETC®. Unfortunately, some past attendees have fallen prey to these companies and were unable to recuperate the money they spent on rooms that did not exist. If you are contacted by any company that is NOT Connections Housing, please notify the FETC Housing Management at FETC@ConnectionsHousing.com before providing any information to a secondary housing vendor.
