REGISTRATION CLOSED

The contracted Event Agency ConferenceNational is in charge of conference registration.

We understand that circumstances can change. Any amendments to a registration must be made in writing to ConferenceNational via alasymposium2025@conferencenational.com.au.

If you cannot attend the conference after making a registration, there are two options: Name change or cancellation.

• Registration Amendments: At any point prior to the event, you are welcome to contact us in writing to nominate a substitute delegate at no extra charge – ticket name change. Tickets will only be transferred on approval from the secretariat. Only one name change is free of charge. If there is a second request of name change for one ticket, an administrative fee of AUD 35.00 will be charged.

• Refunds: Any amendment that is connected to a complicated refund process (for example changing registration ticket) will incur in an administrative fee of AUD 35.00 to be charged.

• Cancellation: We understand that sometimes a name change is not possible, and the registration needs to be cancelled. A cancellation request needs to be made in writing to alasymposium2025@conferencenational.com.au. A full refund less an AUD 100.00 cancellation fee will be issued for cancellations received before 1 May 2025. No refunds will be issued from 1 May 2025. Non-payment does not constitute cancellation.

• Credit Card Transaction Fees: these fees must be paid by the delegate and will not be refunded.This is for making a registration, and for requesting a refund.

Full payment MUST be made at time of registration. Once registration is received a confirmation email and tax invoice will be issued. All registration ticket prices are displayed in Australian Dollars (AUD) and are correct at the date of offer. Any prices quoted may be subject to change until registration is confirmed.
Sponsorship prices are issued in Australian Dollars (AU$).
