Frequently Asked Questions
I don’t have a registration code. Where do I get it?
TPS members need a registration code to take advantage of early registration beginning June 16. If you are a TPS member, you can find the code located in the post “CNASS Registration Code” on the Member-Only TPS Message Board. Non-member registration begins June 23. A registration code is not required beginning June 23.
Where is the seminar series located?
The first weekend of the series—July 19 &20—will be located in the Norcliffe Room at McCaw Hall on the Seattle Center Campus. Directions to McCaw Hall.
Registrants will be sent detailed information regarding this and additional seminar locations, as soon as available. All seminar locations will be in the greater Seattle area.
Can I register separate staff members for each seminar session?
Our speakers are expecting continuity as they are very excited about the progression of the curriculum.
In order to provide the absolute most benefit to the participating organization, TPS encourages teams of staff members to attend from a given organization. Random substitutions are not recommended. The value of the curriculum is cumulative; for example, six different staff members on six different days will disrupt the continuity of the curriculum and the overall learning experience of all involved, as well as decrease its overall value to your organization.
Should you find it necessary to arrange for substitutes, call the TPS office after registering the ‘primary registrants’ on-line and inform us of the dates/names for the substitutes.
The scholarship deadline is before non-TPS member registration. I’m not a TPS member. Can I still apply for a scholarship?
Yes. If you are a non-TPS member, please submit the scholarship application (.doc | .pdf) via email or fax by the June 23 deadline. Scholarship notification will be made by June 24; non-TPS members may then register for the series starting on June 23.
In order to ensure a place in the series, scholarship applicants should register for the series and choose the “print invoice and send a check” payment option. However, please hold your payment. TPS will notify all applicants on June 24; you will have the option to remain registered for the series at full price if you do not receive a scholarship.
What’s included in my registration?
Full seminar series, coffee, box lunch, and refreshments.
Can I get a refund?
The deadline for cancellations is July 1. No refunds will be given after this date.
Can I register for a single session, rather than the entire series?
In order to benefit from the full scope of the curriculum, TPS encourages you to register for the full series. Single session registration will open on July 1, on a space available basis. If the full series sells out before July 1, single sessions will not be available. Single sessions are $175 per person/per session; no scholarships are available.
