FAQs

Registration

• Registrations will only be accepted and processed when payment, or an approved government purchase order, is included. 
• Registrations, or changes to registrations, will not be accepted over the phone as this does not provide an accurate record of the request.

  IEDC, 1275 K St NW Suite 300, Washington, DC 20005. Fax form and copy of purchase order to: (202) 223-4745

Payment Policy

• All payments sent to the IEDC office must be received by August 30, 2024, or registrants will be required to resolve unpaid balances onsite (excluding those with government purchase orders). 
• Conference attendees with a balance due will be required to remit payment before being admitted to the conference, with the exception of those attendees paying by government purchase order. 
• If a copy of your purchase order was not forwarded to IEDC, please present it at the onsite registration desk. 

Cancellation, Refunds and No-Show Policy

• Substitutions cannot be made after August 30, 2024.
• There will be no refunds or credits for cancellations after Friday, August 30, 2024. 
• All cancellation requests must be in writing and can be emailed or sent to IEDC. 
• All registered attendees canceling their registration will be charged a $130 processing fee, regardless of when the written cancellation notice was received. 
• Cancellation requests received by IEDC prior to the close of business on Friday, August 23, 2024, will have their registration fees refunded or credited to a future IEDC event, less the $130 processing fee. 
• A registrant who does not submit a written cancellation, or attend the conference, is considered a “No Show”. No-Shows are not eligible for refunds or credits, and are still liable for outstanding balances.

New Membership Guidelines

• In the past, there have been instances where IEDC extended the benefits of your organizations’ membership to employees and affiliates who are not named on those active rosters. To preserve this members-only exclusivity we are ceasing this practice. Membership discounts will no longer be extended to non-member individuals of an organization.
