CANCELLATION POLICY AND TRANSFERS
Any cancellations received four (4) weeks prior of the event’s commencement will be accepted with 75% of the delegate registration fee refunded. Cancellations received within four (4) weeks of the event commencement date will result in all related registration fees being forfeited by the delegate. Cancellations are only applicable in exceptional cases and at the discretion of SCA (Qld). Registration transfers will be accepted up to two (2) business days prior to the Conference commencement at no cost and are subject to the outlined “Delegate Type” criteria. ALL cancellations or transfers must be received in writing to SCA (Qld)’s postal address or via email to events.qld@strata.community.
SUITCASING POLICY
Suitcasing will not be tolerated. Any organisation who is not a sponsor of the event is NOT permitted to openly market products/services during the conference. This does not include conversing, handing out business cards/networking with delegates. It does include handing out any form of marketing material for products/services of the organisation and/or verbally marketing services and/or making appointments to meet with delegates. Clothing branded in any way with identifying organisation logos or text is not permitted to be worn during the conference or its functions. Breaking these terms carries a fine equal to the cost of a major event sponsorship, ejection from the event, and the penalty of suspension from the next event.
