Registration Policies


Cancellation / Refund / Change Policy

Cancellation, refund, and change requests must be made in writing no later than November 8, prior to the start of the virtual conference. A refund of the registration fee, minus a $50 administrative fee, will be given for cancellations received by that date. Submit all requests to Caitlyn Conklin at [email protected]. Substitutions or transfers are gladly accepted. AUCD reserves the right to review and select to refund registration fees as it deems appropriate.

 

Transfer Policy

To transfer your full registration prior to the event, the already-registered individual must submit a written request to AUCD by November 8. Transfers cannot be accepted after this time. Only one transfer is permitted per original registrant. The individual submitting the transfer request is responsible for all financial obligations (any balance due) associated with that substitution. E-mail Michele Lunsford at [email protected] to request a transfer of your registration, or with questions about the transfer policy.


Group Registrations

Group Registrations: For member UCEDD, IDDRC, and LEND program personnel and trainees, after the first five registrations from the same center using the dropdown menu provided, the sixth and subsequent will automatically receive 20% discounts off the base registration fee. Individuals from the same Center do not need to register together to be eligible for the discount. Only those registrants selecting their AUCD Member Center from the dropdown list will count toward the discount.


Scholarships

AUCD places great importance on having a diverse group of participants at the AUCD Conference. We seek to make the conference and all information presented as accessible as possible to as many people as possible, and recognize that cost can often be a barrier to attending. The AUCD Virtual Conference continues to provide a reduced registration fee for students, individuals with disabilities, and family members of individuals with disabilities. We are also providing both Leader and Conference scholarships this year to offset the cost of the virtual registration. Learn about the oppportunities available this year and see if you are eligible to apply.


Accessibility Accommodations

AUCD has chosen a virtual platform that is screen-reader accessible. All live meetings and pre-recorded videos will have CART live captioning. All plenaries and the awards ceremony will have ASL interpretation and CART live captioning. If you are in need of other specific accessibility accommodations for the virtual conference, please note this on your registration form or contact Shirley Carrillo at [email protected] via email within 30 days of the event. We cannot guarantee accommodations for requests received with less than 30 days-notice.
