AALAS National Meeting Update

Posted on 13:17 by Unknown
Register Before September 16 To Avoid Lines in San Diego
September 16 is the last day to register online or by fax for the National Meeting. After this date attendees must register on site in the convention center. The price is $350 for members and $440 for nonmembers.

When registering for the meeting, don't forget to consider the best value registration package. This registration includes access to the National Meeting On Demand site which, when launched after the meeting concludes, will give you access to the sessions that were recorded. Prices go up if you register on site, so be sure to purchase your access to the site now!

In addition, if you plan on attending workshops, please register as soon as possible. Workshops are quickly filling up. To register, click here.


Housing/Shuttle Reservations
Friday, September 2 is the last day to book hotel rooms at the discounted AALAS rate. Attendees to the National Meeting must make their own housing reservations through the San Diego Housing Bureau. To book your reservations, click here.

Shuttle service has been arranged for attendees of the AALAS National Meeting. To book service, please click here or call 1-800-blue-van and use code SMUKB. 

 
Educational Program
Start planning your itinerary today! Panel discussions, seminars, special topic lectures, technical trade presentations, and workshops have all been scheduled and can be viewed here.

Poster and platform abstracts are now available on the Itinerary Planner and will be printed in the September issue of JAALAS, as well as the Final Program.


Volunteers Needed
Facilitators are still needed to assist in most sessions during the meeting. Responsibilities vary  but often include passing out handouts, working with the moderator to ensure that the speaker can be heard at the back of the room, and helping attendees find seats. Facilitators do not introduce speakers.

Registration to the AALAS National Meeting is not waived for those who volunteer to serve as facilitators; however, your name does go into a drawing for a free registration to next year's meeting or for one of two $25 gift certificates to the AALAS Bookstore.  

For more information or to register, please click here.
