We ask you to fill in your first through forth requests for each time slot to ensure that you are registered for a session of your choice.
Stand-By Procedure
If all session requests are full you will be assigned a “Stand-By” status, which allows you to attend any session during that time slot on a space-available basis. You will be admitted to the session after the pre-registered delegates. Equipment may not be available for stand-by delegates. Pre-registered delegates: you risk losing your space in a session if you arrive late. Please arrive at least 10-15 minutes prior to the start of the session.
Student Early Bird Rate
As part of our 15th Anniversary Celebration this special promotion provides students with a complimentary 1-year Professional Membership including all the regular professional member benefits, and an electronic version of the Can-Fit-Pro Magazine.
The membership offer is for students who take out a new membership within calendar 2008. To be eligible for this special rate, you must complete the online student application and submit your verification of student status prior to registering for the conference.
Delegate Referral Incentive
If you refer a brand new delegate (someone who has never been to our Toronto conference before), we will give you a $15 gift certificate to use for any Can-Fit-Pro product or service valid until December 2008! Have your friend indicate that they are “new” on their registration form, and have them write your name on the “referred by” line. The gift certificate will be included in your delegate kit.
Group Discounts
Groups of five or more: are eligible for a discount of $15 off each delegate’s registration (before tax).
Groups of 10 or more: are eligible for an additional complimentary registration. When 10 delegates pay for the conference, an eleventh delegate can attend for free and all members in the group receive the $15 discount. Clearly indicate the name of the person to receive the complimentary registration on the cover sheet.
Please send complete group’s registrations by fax or mail and include a cover sheet listing all people in the group. If one member of the group is paying by cheque, then all registrations must be received by mail.
If Your Employer is Paying for Your Registration
Regardless of who is paying for your registration, payment must accompany your registration. Registration without payment will not be processed. Sorry, no purchase orders and no invoicing.

Please have your name tag ready for review by the room monitor when entering sessions.

Any attendees found violating these rules will be removed from the venue and their Can-Fit-Pro membership and certification(s) will be revoked.
