New Evening Event
In response to the popularity of our Thursday Evening Events at the Annual Conference, we have added an additional dinner option.

Join your colleagues at the Trumbull Kitchen for a three-course meal and cash bar. The $45 fee does not include transportation, as the restaurant is a short walk away from the Hartford Hilton. The dinner starts at 7.

This event is also limited, so sign up now! To register, please click here or call the NEMA office at 781-641-0013.

Registration for this dinner will be closed on November 1, 2011.

After October 8 and Walk-In Registration
Standard Registration
(October 8 - 21)
If you register after October 8, the Standard Rate applies. You may still register online or by mail, but the deadline is October 21. After this date advance registration is closed, although you may still attend as a walk-in.

Walk-In Registration
Register at the door for a day or the full conference. The Standard Rate applies, but you will not be able to order lunch, and evening/off-site events may be sold out.


Registration Policies
If your institution is sending more than one attendee to the conference, please submit all of your registration forms (either online or by mail) together along with your payment.

If you would like to bring a guest to a lunch or evening event, please use our "Guest" form online or call the NEMA office for details.

You may transfer your registration to another person at any time prior to conference. Please call the NEMA office with the name of your replacement. Once the conference begins, you cannot transfer or share your registration.

One-day registrations may not be split between days. If you want to attend an evening event prior to your one-day registration, you must register for the full conference instead.

Sorry, we are unable to accept purchase orders or government training vouchers.


Cancellation Policy
If you need to cancel your registration and special event tickets, we will provide a refund (less a 25% processing charge). We must receive your refund request in writing (mail or email) no later than October 7, 2011. After that date there are no refunds. Refunds will be mailed after the conference.
