To register, please choose one format:

Registering On-Line

The quickest method is to register on-line at www.abct.org. Use this method for immediate feedback on which ticketed sessions you will be attending. To receive members' discounted rates, your ABCT dues must be up to date. If your membership has lapsed, use this opportunity to renew. To get member rates at this conference, your ABCT dues must be paid through October 31, 2014. The ABCT member year is November 1 - October 31.

For those registering on-site, you may renew membership at the ABCT membership booth located in the ABCT registration area.

Registering by Fax

You may fax your completed registration form, along with credit card information and your signature, to (212) 647-1865. If you choose this method please DO NOT send a follow-up hard copy. This will likely cause double payment. For preregistration rates, please register BEFORE the deadline date of November 1.

Registering by Mail

All preregistrations that are paid by check must be mailed to ABCT, 305 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10001. For preregistration rates, forms must be postmarked by the deadline date: November 1. Forms postmarked starting October 25 will not be processed and will be mailed back to the sender. There will be no exceptions.

For preregistration rates, please register before the deadline date of November 1.

NO registrations will be accepted in any format from November 1 until November 21, when on-site will open in Nashville.

Refund Policy

Refund requests must be in writing. Refunds will be made only until the October 15 deadline, and a $40 handling fee will be deducted. Because of the many costs involved in organizing and producing the Convention, no refunds will be given after October 15.

Confirmation

ABCT will email confirmation shortly after you register. For on-line registration you will receive confirmation the next day. For fax and mail registration, please allow one week. If confirmation is not received, please email Tonya Childers at tchilders@abct.org detailing the date you registered and the fees you paid.

Payment Policy

All fees must be paid in U.S. currency on a U.S. bank. Any bank fees charged to the Association will be passed along to the attendee. Please make checks payable to ABCT.
