Registration Process & Policies

Each in-person attendee will receive a badge, which gives you entry to the Spring Conference, and all attendees (both online and in-person) will receive a login to our events app. Important pre-event information will be sent via email. Please provide each attendee’s information on the registration form. You may register multiple attendees from the same organization, and you may combine in-person and online registrations on the same form. This is the only way to ensure your multiple attendee discounts will be applied correctly.

Your registration will not be complete until you click the SUBMIT button at the very end of the form and you have paid (if applicable). You will see a confirmation screen and receive an email upon completion.

Check payments must be received by March 30, 2025. If a registration is canceled due to non-payment, attendees may have to re-register at the current pricing.

Cancellations through March 23, 2025 may be refunded less a $100 cancellation fee for in-person registrations or in full for online registrations. In-person registrations may also be converted to online and the difference in the fee refunded through March 23. Exceptions to this policy may be possible for health or other reasons; email us if you need assistance!

*Multiple attendee discounts do not apply to day-rate participants.
**Associate and Student memberships are individual and are not transferable. These members may only register themselves.

Guidelines

Participation Guidelines

NAMT is committed to recognizing and celebrating the diversity of experiences, talents, skills, cultures and opinions that our members bring to our community, and specifically to our events. We invite you to participate in all of our Conferences, Roundtables, Festivals and other events, both online and in-person, in a spirit of open-mindedness, curiosity and respect.

We want every NAMT event to be a safe, inclusive and productive environment for all participants. In that spirit, we ask you to…

  • Be inclusive, actively seeking and inviting diverse perspectives
  • Recognize that some people are comfortable responding quickly and verbally and others are not, and create space for those who may need more time to be heard
  • Listen to understand
  • Participate in an active and direct way, with professionalism and respect for others
  • Be considerate, kind, constructive and helpful in your language and actions
  • Use “I” statements and avoid generalizations
  • Assume good intentions but acknowledge impact
  • Ask questions if something isn’t clear, and receive both questions and answers with openness and generosity
  • Refrain from demeaning, discriminatory or harassing behavior and language
  • Respect confidentiality requests by speakers and other participants

We may take action (up to and including expulsion with no refund and exclusion from future events) to redress disruptive, disrespectful or offensive behavior or any other actions perceived by NAMT staff and/or Board to be in conflict with the above guidelines. 

We know that learning and working together can produce both joy and conflict. We recognize that to learn is to stumble, and we are striving to provide a space for risk, creativity, respect, appreciation, growth and collaboration. When addressing conflicts of any type, we commit to these Participation Guidelines.

Thank you to every NAMT community member for helping to make all of our events informative, inclusive and respectful.
