CIBHS specializes in event services tailored to the behavioral health field. We produce a wide range of events, including executive meetings, retreats, conferences, leadership events, workshops, and seminars.
CIBHS manages all aspects of event planning from initial concept and logistical coordination to seamless execution. Our conference planning department, led by a certified Government Meeting Professional (CGMP) conference planner, brings decades of expertise to event production, ensuring flawless execution of every detail. The team’s extensive experience enables us to meet the unique and diverse needs of our clients, customizing each event to achieve its specific goals and objectives. Whether planning intimate meetings or large-scale conferences, our focus remains on delivering high-quality, impactful experiences for the behavioral health community.
Initial Planning Services
CIBHS works closely with convention bureaus, venues, and hotels to find the perfect space for your event. We will actively participate in all planning committee meetings and conference calls, leveraging our expertise to provide valuable insights and support in developing the event’s agenda and logistics.
Registration Services
CIBHS handles all aspects of registration, from processing payments and generating reports to providing on-site staff and managing data entry. We also send automated confirmation emails to registrants and ensure a smooth registration experience from start to finish.
Conference planning is the ghost in the machine when creating a seamless, well executed event. Evidence of a job well done is the almost “magical” way all elements of a well-orchestrated event effortlessly come together-from quality of accommodations, to food service, and leisure amenities. CIBHS has many years of supporting highly rated, expertly planned conferences, meetings, and events.

Evaluation Services
CIBHS will create and distribute an evaluation link for attendees to assess the event and submit their feedback. Following the event, we will summarize the evaluation results and provide the planning committee with a comprehensive final report, offering valuable insights into future events.
Continuing Education
CIBHS offers continuing education units or credits for various licensures allowing participants to fulfill their professional development requirements while enhancing their skills and knowledge in the field of behavioral health.
Graphic Design
CIBHS offers comprehensive graphic design and printing services for your event. Our graphic designer creates custom flyers and marketing materials for committee approval, with design services available at an hourly rate. We act as liaison, coordinating printing and negotiating costs. Additionally, CIBHS compiles and posts all conference handouts on the Conference Mobile App and website, while also preparing printed materials for distribution at the event.
Audio Visual Services
CIBHS will identify and procure all necessary audio-visual equipment, leveraging their experience and vendor relationships to negotiate competitive pricing. This approach guarantees that the event remains within budget while maintaining quality, ultimately resulting in significant cost savings for the organizing committee.
On Site Logistics
A dedicated conference planner will oversee on-site logistics, managing the event’s setup, registration, and troubleshoot any arising issues. This planner will facilitate smooth flow by adhering to the schedule and coordinating participants’ roles and responsibilities, which include managing speakers, sessions, and vendors.
Promotional Materials
CIBHS will negotiate the best possible pricing for promotional items, receive and coordinate logos to be imprinted on the items, place orders, and arrange for shipping and storage of items prior to the event.
Optional Services
The CIBHS Conference Planning Department can offer additional services including negotiation, contracting, and arrangement of group transportation for off-site event activities and airport shuttle transportation for your meeting or event.
