What are the Dates for the 2008 conference?

February 24-26, 2008

When will the 2008 Program Information and Attendee Registration forms be available on the Web Site?

Information concerning the 2008 Program and Registration forms will be available on the web site in mid-December 2007.

Have you received my attendee registration? What happens if I show up and you have not received my attendee registration fee?

If you requested confirmation of your registration, you should receive a note from the ECC by e-mail. If you did not request e-mail confirmation, or have not received the e-mail, we may still be processing your registration.  This is particularly true of late registrants.  Don't worry!  Most of the registration runs like clockwork. If you foresee any problem with your registration, please bring a copy of your registration form with you, and our helpful ECC committee will assist you when you check in.

My company is slow in preparing a check for the conference fees.   What should I do?

It is best to mail or fax in your attendee registration form with a note attached regarding when and how you will be forwarding the payment.  The ECC will register you, and you can pay at the door.  We also accept payment by credit card (MasterCard, VISA, Discover and American Express).

Am I too late to attend?

Early pre-registration is the easiest way to attend the ECC, but it is possible to register at the door, subject to a $50 late fee.

What is the dress code at the conference?

Business attire is encouraged.

If I cancel or do not attend the conference, will I be able to receive a refund? 

Written requests made prior to January 31, 2008 will be honored. Thereafter, no refunds are possible. 

Can my company pay registration fees by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)? 

Yes, please contact Connie Wing for details.

What is the tax ID for the Eastern Claims Conference

The Federal Tax ID (EIN) number is 20-8483688

What is a Hospitality Reception?  Do I have to sign up?  Does it cost extra?

The Hospitality Receptions are networking opportunities on Sunday and Monday nights provided by the ECC Hospitality Sponsors.  Refreshments are provided.  All Conference Attendees, Speakers, Sponsors and Exhibitors are welcome to attend one or both of the Receptions at no additional cost.  Attendance is optional, however, it is strongly encouraged.  The setting provides an opportunity to discuss concepts presented at the panel sessions, to meet speakers and peers.  If you plan to attend, please check the box(es) so that an admission ticket will be part of your registration package and so that we can give accurate counts to the hotel for food and space planning.

What is the First Pre-registered Guest? 

Guests are usually spouses or colleagues who attend the Hospitality Receptions on Sunday and/or Monday evenings.  Guests do not attend lunches or workshops.  If you are registering a guest, please provide the guest’s first and last name in the Hospitality Reception section, check the box for First Pre-registered Guest, and include the cost in the Fees section.

Although the ECC is pleased to waive the registration fee for Speakers, Speakers are responsible for paying the fee for their guests.
