Forum Registration
You can only register electronically. To register on-line go to http://www.eair.nl/forum/valencia/ registrationform.asp. The website registration form should also be used to register for the EAIR Social Events, the Forum Banquet and the meetings of the Pre-Forum Special Interest Groups.

Due to increasing numbers of registrations for the Valencia Forum, EAIR is extending the early registration deadline till Friday 23 July 2010.

Completed forms should be submitted to the EAIR Secretariat in Amsterdam before 23 July (early registration date). The Secretariat will send you an invoice with an itemised list of all the events for which you have registered and instructions on how to pay. Payments must be in Euro and paid within two weeks after the invoice date. If your payment or ‘proof of payment’ has not been received two weeks prior to the Forum, your registration will be cancelled. Contact the EAIR Secretariat in Amsterdam in case of doubt. The invoice will also function as the confirmation of your registration. Participants will be added to an electronic list of participants. Check this list regularly to see if you name is on it, once registered.

Forum Fees
The registration fee for the Forum includes attendance at all sessions, lunches, coffee and tea, the Welcome Reception, the Social Dinner, but not the Forum Banquet. Persons accompanying Forum participants to the Social Dinner have to pay an extra fee.

The Forum is open to both members and non-members of EAIR. Speakers at the Forum will be expected to pay the Forum registration fee to participate in the Forum. The registration fee for the EAIR Forum in Valencia will be € 675. EAIR members receive a reduction of € 165, and pay € 510. Registrations received after the early closing date are charged an additional € 55.

Reductions
Participants in the categories below may qualify for a reduction in the Forum fee and in the fee for EAIR membership. Participants at the Forum who qualify for and request a reduction must also become current EAIR members.

Young Forum speakers (main authors)
Young (under 35) professionals and academics working in universities, polytechnics and other higher education institutions - either in university administration, or in academic departments with particular research interests in management issues - can participate in the EAIR Forum at a reduced fee of 50%. They need to have a proposal accepted for the Forum in Valencia and satisfy specific conditions.

Students/Emeritus members
Students in higher education, and emeritus colleagues who for at least four years prior to retiring were members of EAIR, are entitled to a reduction on the Forum fee. Students in higher education pay 50% of the Forum fee, while emeritus colleagues pay 2/3rd of the Forum fee.

Speakers from Central and Eastern European countries
Due to stringent budget we regret to inform that presenters coming from Central or Eastern European countries not belonging to the EU are required to apply for a 50% reduction of the Forum fee. We hope, next year, we can reinstate the original offer. Thank you in advance for your kind understanding. Should you need more information kindly contact the EAIR Secretariat.

Participants from DAC countries
A discount of 50% is offered to presenters who are working in countries designated as "Least developed" or "Other low income countries" by the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) of the OECD. (These countries are in the first two categories on the DAC/OECD list only.) A condition for receiving this 50% reduction is the acceptance of the proposal.

Bank charges
There will be a € 14 charge for all participants to cover the (average) additional charges of credit card and bank transfers.

Cancellation Policies
Cancellations of registration and requests for refund must be made in writing to the EAIR Secretariat no later than 6 August 2010. Forum registration fees will be refunded with a deduction of € 50 for administrative costs. There will be no refund for cancellations received after the cancellation date. Please note that refunds will be made after the Forum and after all Forum payments have been processed. If your payment or ‘proof of payment’ has not been received two weeks prior to the Forum, your registration will be cancelled. Contact the EAIR Secretariat in Amsterdam in case of doubt.
