The 2016 ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition is open to association and association management company professionals, consultants, federal government employees, higher education professionals, corporate meeting planners, and attorneys. Meeting registration is only open to those industry partner members who exhibit. Exceptions are made only for ASAE Board of Directors, speakers, and council/committee members whose council/committee is meeting in person during the ASAE Annual Meeting & Exposition in Salt Lake City. This ensures a high buyer/supplier ratio. No one under the age of 18 may enter the exhibit hall at any time. ASAE reserves the right to refuse ineligible registrations.
Ineligible Registrations
All registrations are reviewed to ensure they meet ASAE eligibility policies. ASAE reserves the right to refuse or cancel all ineligible registrations at any time and shall not be held accountable for any outside fees associated with this cancellation. Please refer to the specific Eligibility Policy above.
Special Offers/Discount Codes/ASAE Access Pass
Use of a discount code is only valid at the time of the initial purchase/registration. Refunds will not be authorized for existing registrations where the special offer was received after the initial purchase. Discount codes cannot be applied to already reduced/discounted registrations, including Access Pass. Access Pass cannot be used in conjunction with a Small Staff discount or Circle Club benefit. Limit one special offer/discount code per registration.
If you have any questions and/or concerns regarding any of the abovementioned Policies, please contact the ASAE Registration Team via email.
Cancellation/Refunds
All registration cancellations and refund requests must be made in writing by July 13, 2016. A refund of the full conference fee, minus a $75 administrative fee, will be given for cancellations received by that date.
Attendees using Access Pass will have their points fully returned to available balance up until July 13, 2016. No refunds will be granted for requests postmarked after July 13, 2016.
