Accessibility

We wish to make our conference as accessible as possible, so that everyone can participate fully.  Do you have a disability or special need which requires our awareness?  If so, we invite you to get in touch with us and let us know at convenors@iaagt.org.  Please note that we strive to be an inclusive, accessible conference, but not all requests can be guaranteed. 

Conference Pricing:

If applying for scholarship, use the “Scholarship – payment deferred” ticket option. Your registration fees will be deferred until you receive notice of acceptance, at which time you will be required to pay the full fee. You will be reimbursed at the conference.

Pre-Conference Workshops:

These will take place on Tuesday 17th of May 2022, and the morning of Wednesday 18th of May, 2022.  Workshops are either full-day or half day events.  This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with other delegates, and with the theme of the conference before the full conference begins.  Pre-Conference workshops have fees separate to the main conference fee.  A full day (8 hour) Pre-Conference workshop will cost 100 € , and half day workshops are 50 € .  Attendees will be provided with Certificates of Attendance for Continuous Professional Development purposes for these workshops.
