After October 10 and Walk-In Registration
You must register at the Standard Rate. Do not mail registration materials after October 27, 2008. Registration through the NEMA office closes after this date. After October 27, you may phone NEMA to learn if pre-registration is still available; we cannot guarantee lunch availability. Walk-ins will not be able to buy lunches on-site.

Registration Policies
Whenever possible we request that institutional delegate forms be mailed together.

NEMA welcomes trustees to attend our programs. For special trustee rates, please contact your museum's director or phone NEMA.

The annual meeting is a membership meeting; there is a substantial discount for members. Please call the NEMA office for details of special rates for spouses, other family members and guests.

Registration rates do not include fees for special sessions, off-site events/sessions, and evening events.

Registrations cannot be shared or split; please use the one-day registration option. If you will be attending any part of a second day—including evening events of the prior day—you should register for the full conference.

Registrations may be transferred to another person at any time prior to conference. Please call NEMA with the name of the replacement. There will be a ticket exchange board at the meeting for registrants who wish to sell or trade tickets for meals and special events.

We are unable to accept purchase orders or government training vouchers.

Cancellation Policy
All cancellations must be received, via mail, by October 10. Registrations and special events fees will be refunded, less a 25% processing charge. Refunds will be mailed after the conference.
