Until 2022, the annual convention was a three-day affair scheduled in late March or early April that brought together students and faculty from member schools across the state for speakers, workshops, contests, meetings and more. For many years the state convention was anchored in Fresno in hotel or university settings. From the early 2000s until the pandemic, the convention rotated between Sacramento to Southern California in a hotel setting.
Since 2022, the JACC State Convention has joined forces with the Associated Collegiate Press spring college media conference.
