AWA 16

Registration Help Center

 

 Introduction

The AWA Registration Help Center is designed to assist you on certain things regarding Registration at AWA.

 
We have two forms of Registration: one for Single Memberships and another for Group Memberships. Both forms are available either as a mail-in form or online. Mail in forms require checks, money order or credit/debit card as payment. Online forms require a credit /debit card.
Please note that content will be updated, so check back often.

 

Transfers

A transfer involves changing the name of the attendee to another person. If you will not be able to attend and have someone who wants to, you can email us at info@awa-con.com (if you purchased a mail-in form) or go to the online registration web sites for Single or Group Memberships.

Unused AWA Memberships

If you purchased an AWA Membership and do not attend, your membership does not automatically transfer to next year’s AWA.
You have the option to:
1) Transfer your membership to next year’s AWA. 
2) Transfer your membership to another person.
3) Request a refund.
 
You must contact us to have your membership transferred.
 

All Unused Memberships are subject to verification.

Unused memberships from AWA 2009 can be refunded for the full amount. If you have an unused membership from AWA 2008, you will be refunded for 1/2 the amount paid. Any unused membership from AWA 2007 and earlier will not be refunded or transfered.

 

 

Corrections

If there is a mistake in your membership, contact us immediately! Online Memberships can be corrected by going to the web sites for single and group memberships. Mail-in memberships can contact us via email. Please note that a replacement Confirmation Letter will not be sent, as the information will be corrected when you receive your badge.
 
 

 

Mail-in vs. Online Memberships

Mail-in Memberships are for those who do not want to pay by credit card and use the online registration. Mail in members are sent a Confirmation Letter to bring to the convention to get their badge.
 
Online Memberships offer more flexibility by entering information via a credit or debit card. You can access your information at any time, make changes to your membership, and have your confirmation sent to you via email. You can also get your membership badge before the convention by purchasing the Early Start Pre-registration Delivery Service.
 

 

Early Start

AWA Early Start is a Pre Registration Delivery Service where for an additional fee, you will have your badge and other materials sent to you before the convention via USPS Express Mail. Early Start is only available to those who register online.

Early Start badges are non-refundable/transferable after they have been mailed.

 

Badge Pickup

AWA Membership Badges will be available Thursday, September 16, 2010, in the Registration section at the Renaissance Waverly Hotel at about 6:00pm. You can also pick up your badge during the operation hours of Registration during the convention. Lines will be long, so arrive early.
