We accept PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover cards.

Cancellations may be made up until October 1st, 2016. There is a $100 cancellation fee. Refunds will be made within four weeks of the end of the conference. There is no refund for cancellations after the 1st of October 2016.

At any time you may transfer your registration to another person. To do this, email a confirmation note authorizing the person to attend in your place. Both parties will be contacted via email or phone to verify transfer of registration.

"No-shows" are not refundable and are liable for the full registration fee. If you can't attend, and it is past the refund date, then consider transferring your registration to another person.
