External function requests are for ancillary events held in conjunction with 2017 Annual Program Meeting (APM) activities by exhibiting groups and related organizations such as advisory board, business, and community meetings; educational events; focus groups; and social functions. Any organization (commercial or nonprofit) that wishes to hold functions of any size or nature at the Sheraton Dallas Hotel from October 19–21 must complete an online form.

NOTE: CSWE will attempt to schedule your event as requested; however, the number of events to be scheduled at APM prevents CSWE from guaranteeing any particular date, time, or location. All requests will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. Extensive changes to meeting room setups, labor, food and beverage, entertainment, and audio visual equipment incur extra charges to the organization requesting space.
