SPECIAL NEEDS
The AIAS is committed to making our meetings accessible to all. Please notify us at the time of registration if you have special accessibility needs or specific dietary requirements. You may indicate this during the online registration process or contact us at mailbox@aias.org.
GUESTS
In recognition that our members and other registrants enjoy traveling and sharing experiences with their "significant others" (married spouse, domestic partner, girl/boyfriend), the AIAS offers a guest rate for its conferences. Guest registration is strictly reserved for spouses or significant others who accompany conference attendees for personal reasons. Guests are not eligible to report learning units for IDP or continuing education credit. Individuals registering as Guests can only do so for the optional events that are ticketed separately, such as the tours and the Beaux Arts Ball. Guests interested in attending the entire conference must pay the "Non-Member Rate" if they are not AIAS members.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Cancellations prior to 12:00 Midnight (Eastern Time) on December 5, 2008 will be refunded less a $25 processing fee. NO REFUNDS OF REGISTRATION FEES WILL BE GIVEN AFTER DECEMBER 5, 2008. Cancellations must be made in writing by letter, fax or email to mailbox@aias.org. Please allow four to six weeks after the conference for the refund to be provided.
Space in the pre-conference workshops and on the tours is limited and registration is on a first-come, first-served basis and subject to change. Some tours and pre-conference workshops may have their times and dates change or be cancelled due to things beyond the control of the AIAS. You will be notified in advance (when possible) of changes. You will receive a 100% refund if a pre-conference workshop or tour is cancelled.
Registering for FORUM 2008 constitutes an agreement between you and the AIAS. The performance of the agreement by the AIAS may be affected by force majeure (including but not limited to acts of God, acts of war or other acts of enemies, government regulation, disaster, strikes, floods, civil disorder, curtailment of transportation facilities, or other emergency or event beyond the control of the parties), thus making it inadvisable, unsafe, illegal, or impossible to provide required accommodations and/or meeting facilities, hold the meeting, or travel to the meeting. In the event of force majeure, the AIAS may terminate the agreement upon providing written notice to the other party without penalty or obligation. Such right of termination shall not be unreasonably exercised.
In addition, the AIAS reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel this meeting. In that event, the AIAS shall refund to you all registration fees it has received from you for this meeting but shall have no further obligation to you of any type, whether monetary or otherwise. Accordingly, the AIAS shall in no event have any liability to you and shall have no other obligation to you of any type except as expressly stated in the preceding sentence. Such right of termination shall not be unreasonably exercised.
