Note: We are aware of the continually evolving landscape surrounding COVID-19 and other respiratory illnesses, and their impact on public health, particularly at the University of Waterloo. We will follow public health guidelines and are strongly recommending wearing a mask at all times during the conference. Procedure masks will be available at the Registration Desk.

If you intend to pay using your unit’s Discount Code, you need to enter the respective Discount Code directly into the registration form when you register.

If your department chair, program director, or other senior administrator has agreed to cover the cost of conference registration, enter the Discount Code after selecting “New Registration.” After inputting the rest of your registration information, you will be directed to choose a Payment Method on the Check Out Summary screen. Please leave this blank. By inputting the Discount Code initially, you can bypass entering in the Payment Method and instead just click ‘Continue’ to finalize your registration. If you are unsure if your registration will be covered, please contact your department chair or unit head, or see the Unit Coverage section below.

Bursaries

This year again we are happy to announce that we have a limited number of bursaries available. The purpose of the bursary is to support undergraduate, graduate, sessional instructors, or precarious instructors who do not have their own home unit already supporting their registration fees. Please only request a bursary if you do not have other financial means (i.e., Faculty Professional Expense Reimbursement) to pay for registration. If you’re unsure if your home unit is supporting your registration fee, please review the list below.

Unit Coverage

Below is a list of units/faculties that are covering registration fees. Please contact the individual indicated to request your Discount Code.

We will be updating this list as we receive information from unit heads. Contact us if you are being covered by your unit and they are not on this list.
