Here's the info from last year, as far as I know it's the same:

Please note that this programming is only open to educators, student teachers, librarians, distributors, and hobby retailers.

*All Trade Day badges require that you submit proof of employment (examples include most recent transcripts, a business license, business cards, copy of pay stub, or a workplace ID card).Refunds for purchased badges will not be given if proper documentation is not submitted.

You can just buy the badge at registration like normal, then expect an email asking for confirmation. I just email a scan of my school staff ID and that suffices.

I work at an Early Years Center as an Parent Support Worker in Ontario and my background is Child and Youth Worker. Would this qualify me for a Trade Pass?

I don't know what that means.  Are you a teacher?

As an Parent Support Worker I help parents find the resources they need in the region that I live in such as workshops run by public health, mental health support and day care information.  But as an Child and Youth Worker I did instruction in social skills and self regulation.  Also I did in class support with students with exceptionalities and special needs.  Technically it is not a teacher but certainly I have worked in the classroom in support of teachers and their students.

I would check with GenCon directly. The person who handled Trade Day last year was Megan Culver. You could try emailing her and explaining your position to see if she thinks your qualify. She is very patient, kind and gracious and will give an honest [email protected]
