Complimentary Meeting Registration for Chapter Executives and Other Chapter Staff or Consultants

 

 

Like ACR members, chapter executive directors, executive secretaries, legal counsel, lobbyists and other chapter staff/consultants do not have to pay a registration fee to attend the 2004 ACR Annual Meeting and Chapter Leadership Conference.  This complimentary registration does not include educational sessions, CME credit or tours.

 

It is important that all chapter staff/consultants, who plan to attend the meeting, register.  When completing the registration form, chapter staff/consultants should check “ACR Member” in box 5 of the form and then write in their position with the chapter (i.e. chapter executive or chapter lobbyist).
