Benefits of Registering:
– Flexible Access: Registered participants can access all Symposium programs anytime during the event and for 90 days afterward. Only registered participants have this privilege. Programs will not be publicly posted. Participants can easily create a personalized schedule of sessions to attend, and download materials provided by presenters. Participants can even take notes right in the app.
— Share your research and interests: Participants can share their biographies, interests, affiliations, and other details on their profiles. They can share websites and links to online portfolios and publications, social media accounts, and upload resumés for others to see.
– Connect with Others: Participants can use the app’s social networking features to interact with others, find other attendees with similar interests, message presenters and other participants, create or join discussions and virtual meetups, exchange contact information with other participants, respond to programs, and message event organizers.
Registration Fees:
Registration fees help cover the costs of the Symposium platforms, administrative expenses, Zoom licenses, and other related costs. TSA is mostly run by volunteers, with two part-time staff, and many Symposium tasks are handled by volunteer Board members and TSA members.
TSA aims to make the Symposium affordable. Registration fees are much lower than in 2018. Early registration was $350, and regular registration was $450, with no reduced rate. Now, TSA offers a sliding scale for symposium registration and membership fees and can provide more awards and fee waivers than ever before. The 2024 Symposium is being held virtually to eliminate travel and accommodation costs.
Registration fees are in US dollars.
