Attendee FAQs

Yes. Here’s how it works: When one person from a member institution purchases a full registration to the conference by the early registration deadline (July 23), any other individuals from that institution who register by the early registration deadline will receive a discounted rate as outlined on the registration page. The discount is only available to CUPA-HR members and does not apply to one-day registrations.

That depends on your dietary needs. Full conference registration fees include the following:

Opening Reception — Various heavy appetizers along with beverages
Two Breakfasts
Two Lunches
Breaks — Beverages
Monday Helping Hour in the Expo and Tuesday Closing Reception — Light appetizers to accompany beverages

One-day registration fees do not include all the above items, but do include the meals and breaks at the conference on the day of your registration.
