HOW DO I RECEIVE A STUDENT OR RETIRED PROFESSIONAL DISCOUNT ON THE CONFERENCE REGISTRATION?

I NEED TO MAKE A CHANGE TO MY CONFERENCE REGISTRATION. CAN I ADD OR EDIT SESSION CHOICES? CAN I ADD OR CHANGE A LUNCHEON?

Yes, you can log back in from the conference registration page and make changes to your sessions and luncheons up until registration closes.

HOW DO WE RECEIVE COLLEGE CREDIT FOR ATTENDING THE CONFERENCE?

You can earn 1 hour of college credit by viewing 15 hours of keynotes and sessions. You must keep a log of your attendance and write at least one paragraph of the key learnings from all your sessions. More information will be provided in the conference program and on our website closer to the conference. 

I ATTENDED THE CONFERENCE LAST YEAR, CAN YOU SEND ME A COPY OF MY OLD RECEIPT?

We are a volunteer-led nonprofit organization. Unfortunately, the cost to house records from prior years is too great. That is why we only maintain records of the most recent conference. On October 1st when registration opens, we no longer have access to conference registration information from the prior year. That is why we remind you at the end of the registration to print a copy for your records.

I NEED TO CANCEL MY CONFERENCE REGISTRATION HOW DO I DO THAT?

Our cancellation policy is always found in the registration booklet and states: Refunds for the CCIRA conference will not be given due to inclement weather or scheduling conflicts. In the event of a non-weather related emergency, written documentation must accompany your request. In case of illness, a registration can be transferred to another 2025 attendee. Refunds will not be issued for payments of $75.00 or less. Refunds for payments greater than $75.00 will be given minus a non-refundable processing fee: $75.00 up to the registration deadline (Thursday, February 6, 2025 - the first day of the conference), $100.00 after that date. If a refund request is granted before the registration deadline (2/6/25), all monies for conference payment will be refunded minus the non-refundable registration fee. After that date, refund requests must be made no later than ten days after registration deadline (2/6/25). Refunds at this time, if granted, will be for registration fees only, not meals or membership dues. Each request will be considered on an individual basis. All refund decisions will be made by the CCIRA President.

Where do I get information for sponsorship, exhibiting, or advertising for the conference?

Look under the “Conference” tab to find a link to the Sponsorship, Exhibiting, or Advertising webpage. There you will find pricing, registration, and payment information.
