EDUCATION GRANTS
The ASHRM Foundation is offering a limited amount of educational funding to offset the registration fee (no travel or hotel expenses will be supported) for ASHRM’s annual conference Oct. 2-5, 2008, in Boston. Those in financial need who are interested in applying are invited to review the grant application guidelines. Completed applications for conference support are due June 13.
TEAM DISCOUNTS
ASHRM offers a 10 percent discount off the member or non-member rate for groups of 20 or more registrants from the same organization. All team registrations must be submitted together with one payment – on one credit card or check – to qualify for discount.
SUBSTITUTIONS
Registrants unable to attend may send an alternate. If the alternate is not a member of ASHRM and the original registrant is a member, the non-member differential must be paid.

ASHRM reserves the right to reschedule or cancel a program because of an insufficient number of registrations or to close registration when programs are full. ASHRM may cancel a program when circumstances beyond ASHRM’s control – including, but not limited to, acts of God, governmental authority or war in the United States – make it impractical or impossible to host the program or may put participants in harm’s way. In such cases, ASHRM will refund one-half of the registration fee paid by the registrant.
