It is most useful for Ohio music teachers, since the conference pairs professional development with over 30 student performing ensembles and a trade show of nearly 250 exhibitors, and is organized by the Ohio Music Education Association. Sponsors include instrument dealers, tour companies and university music schools, so it suits educators shopping for gear, trips and recruiting contacts; teachers outside the region or non-music educators will get less from it.
Music educators at state conferences usually wear business casual, with comfortable shoes for the large exhibit hall, and some directors dress up on days when their ensembles perform.
