Sensory Bags
Sensory bags are available to borrow from our event registration desk. Each sensory bag is equipped with a range of items to help you feel comfortable and supported, including a weighted blanket, noise-cancelling headphones, various fidget toys, a colouring book, and gum.
Sensory bags will also be available in the Quiet Room.
In the conference area itself, you will find a small basket of fidget toys at each table. Free to play and fidget, but please leave them behind for the next fidgeter.
Quiet Room
At BCcampus events we offer a designated quiet room to provide a peaceful and calming environment for attendees who need a break from the noise, lights, and other stimuli of the event spaces. The quiet room is intended to help you stay relaxed and focused so you can make the most of your learning and networking opportunities. The quiet room is not intended for conversations or meetings, but rather as a space to take a break and recharge.
The quiet room will be located in Segal Room 1430.
Lap Blankets
We understand venue temperatures can be unpredictable, so we’ve got you covered! We offer fluffy lap blankets to help you stay comfortable. You will find these blankets placed throughout the venue. If you are feeling chilly, please grab one.
Frequent and Extended Breaks
We prioritize the health and wellness of our attendees by including frequent and extended breaks in our event schedules. We often adjust the start and end times to allow for more time between sessions, and we provide longer breaks than typical conferences to give attendees time to rest, recharge, and network. By doing so, we hope to create an environment that promotes learning, collaboration, and well-being.
Photography Opt-Out Option
From time to time, a photographer is present at in-person BCcampus events to capture images to be shared on our digital platforms and promotional materials. Attendees are always able to decline the media release of photos. Red lanyards identify an attendee who does not want to be photographed.
