How much does registration cost? Fees are based on whether you are a member or not and how many/which days you attend. The registration/payment and cancellation deadline are all October 24th. Full/correct payment must be received by October 24th to avoid the late fee. The fee scale is:
I have a large group of people I need to register, do I really have to register each individually online? We offer an expedited manual group registration process for companies sending 15 or more individuals IF the company is able to process a collective/group invoice. To register via this expedited manual process, please fully complete our expedited registration form and return it via email to orders@mid-atlanticahma.org. NOTE: Individuals registered via this expedited registration process will not receive a system-generated registration confirmation at the time of registration. For this reason, we recommend that you forward to them the dates for which they have been registered. The standard conference payment/cancellation policy applies. Once an invoice is generated/provided, any additional attendees will require separate on-line registration via our online registration link. Any changes to the group registration can only be made following our usual/standard substitution policy. Full payment is required prior to October 24th. Failure to pay the correct/full invoiced amount timely may result in late fees and other penalties.
Are meals included in the cost of the conference?
Yes--We will provide coffee/tea/water throughout all days. In addition, we will provide lunch on Tuesday and Wednesday and breakfast items on Wednesday and Thursday. Lunch is not provided for Maintenance Workshop attendees on Wednesday.
Is there a group-rate available at the conference hotel?
Yes. We have a block of rooms reserved at the special rate of $125++/night. Reservation deadline is October 27th--NOTE: Our block tends to sell-out quickly! Reservations may be made directly with Hilton Reservations at 1-800-222-Tree; please reference our group code "90K" to receive the special rate. Alternatively, you may place your reservation via our reservations link https://www.hilton.com/en/attend-my-event/ricksdt-90k-b4da3f9f-abbe-4e39-ad52-b22291478948/
How do I register for the conference?
Register for the conference online here. If you have a group of 15+ to register and can process a group invoice for your full group, you may register via our expedited large group registration form. Note: all individual/small group registrations must use the online registration portal. Online registration allows you to select check or credit card payment until Oct. 17th. From Oct. 17-24th, registrations require credit card payment. In all cases, full payment of registration fees must be received by us by October 24th.
Is there a registration and/or payment deadline?
Yes. The registration and payment deadline is October 24th. Check payments must be received by the October 24th deadline (the deadline is not met via check date or postmark date!). Late payments will incur a $50/person late payment fee.
May I pay my registration fee online?
Yes. You may pay via credit card at the time you register or at any time via our payment link.
When I registered, I indicated I would pay by check but now I want to pay via credit card. How/where may I now pay via credit card? You may pay via credit card at our payment portal (please reference your order/invoice # to ensure proper credit of your payment) https://mid-atlanticahma.org/ma-ahma-payment/
What's included with my conference registration? Your registration fee provides access to quality/world-class instruction on the days for which you register/pay plus refreshments/meals as outlined in the earlier question. All paid registrants are welcome to attend the Vendor Exhibition (just let us know you're coming if you're not registered for the conference on Wednesday, Nov. 20th).
I am a vendor; how do I register?
Our vendors and associate members are important to us and vital to our members. Booth reservations may be placed here. Booth reservations do not include conference registration; conference session attendance requires separate registration/payment.
Are Certificates of Attendance provided?
Certificates of Attendance will only be provided upon request after the event. Specific instructions on how to request your certificates are provided here. Please ensure you follow the instructions and meet the request deadline.
