Session Selection and Seating

Your session selections help us assign meeting room space for each educational session. This allows us to project which sessions are in demand, but it does not guarantee your seating. If you change your mind, you may attend a different session than the one you signed up for on your registration form. Session seating is on a first-come, first-served basis, unless otherwise noted.

All prices USD

Workshop sessions: Business casual.

Badges

New this year. Conference badges are mailed the week of April 17, 2009. Please bring your badge with you to Charlotte. It is your passport to the Express registration line.


Special Needs

If you have special dietary needs or if you require any special services or auxiliary aids in accordance with the Americans With Disabilities Act, please be sure to check the appropriate line on the Conference registration form. An ISM representative will contact you to confirm your special needs.
