Important Registration Tips
The registration system is divided into four parts: Registration Options (select your attendee type); Questions; Program (add-ons like short courses, closing ceremony, etc); and Checkout. 

• Preferred Registration Browser: Internet Explorer works best with the ICCB Registration System. If possible, please complete your registration using Internet Exlporer.
• Registration Options: Upon log in you will be presented with member or non member rates. Select the attendee option that fits your profile (student, professional from a developed country, professional from a developing country).  You may register for the Full Conference or purchase a Day Pass. Be careful to differentiate between the two options.
• Questions (Demographic / Logistical): You do not have to answer every question in this section, but to have a successful checkout you must answer every question that is marked with a red asterisk. Important: Be sure to click on the "Save Responses" button upon completion of this section. 
• Program Options: Be sure to click the "Add" button for each program item you select. The system will refresh with every new item you add to your cart. Please be patient. Important: If you add a Congress t-shirt to your cart you must select a t-shirt size. If you do not select a size, the system will not allow you to check out. 
• Checkout: Your Checkout Page will not itemize your purchases. Rather, you will be presented with a "Transaction Grand Total." However, after you submit your payment you will land on a confirmation page that lists all purchased items (though just one total cost). If you want to track your expenses as you build your cart, please note the cost of each item as you move through the system. Important: The system will not allow you to submit your order if you failed to answer a required field. You will receive an error message that instructs you to "click the event link to correct this problem before checking out." There is no event link to click. Rather, use the back button on your browser. 

Hardship Cases: Members of indigenous communities and unemployed participants might qualify for a discounted registration rate. To express interest, please email ICCB Registration. Your email should detail why you are requesting a special rate to attend ICCB.

Exhibit Hall Pass only/Accompanying Guest: Perfect for networking opportunities or accompanying guest! This pass provides LIMITED access to the congress venue (ground floor) and amenities (available for purchase online only). The fee for one day pass is $45 and for the full congress is $180. Pass holders may not participate in the following scientific sessions: opening/closing ceremonies, breakout sessions or plenaries. A guest ticket for the closing ceremony can be purchased separately.

Press Pass: Editors, TV/radio/written press reporters and broadcast/Internet reporters/bloggers from verified media outlets will receive free editorial press badges. More information will be available soon!

Offset Your Travel to ICCB: Since 2007, SCB has contributed to a carbon offset project in order to offset greenhouse gas emissions due to ICCB meetings. All congress registrations include a contribution to the carbon offset project (opt-out available upon registration). The contribution for developed country professionals is $28. The contribution for students and professionals from developing country professionals and Small Islands States is $5.

For the first time, SCB will work to make ICCB 2017 a fully sustainable congress. With the help of Guy Bigwood, MCI Group Sustainability Director, SCB wishes to be leading the sustainable conference effort.  We are setting new standards in Sustainable Conference. Join us!
