FAQs
What does my full (2-day) registration include? Full registrations include breakfast and lunch on Thursday and Friday, two drink tickets for the Wednesday night icebreaker, and admission to Casino Night (except for students).
What does my 1-day registration include? 1-day and extra daily exhibitor registrations include breakfast and lunch, but not Casino Night, which you can purchase separately.
What’s included with Casino Night? Casino Night admission includes two drink tickets, hors d’oeuvres, and a voucher for $2,000 worth of “chips.”
Are field trips included in my registration fee? No. However, you don’t need to be registered for the symposium to sign up for a field trip. Due to safety and liability reasons, you must be an AHS member to register for field trips.
Do I need to be a member to register? No, but it’s a better deal if you are. If you register as a nonmember (full or 1-day), the price includes a 1-year AHS membership ($45 value regular / $15 value student. Note that the registration system will display the appropriate pricing (member or nonmember) after you log in and it verifies your membership status.
What if I need to cancel? Contact us at register@ahssymposium.org. If you cancel before September 6, AHS will refund your registration fee minus a 10% processing fee; from September 6–12, AHS will refund 50% of your registration fee.
Can I earn PDHs for attending? Yes! You can earn 10 professional development hours for attending the full symposium, plus an additional 5.5 hours if you also attend the Saturday field trip. Be sure to check the box during the registration process.
