REGISTRATION RATES AND INFORMATION
BEFORE YOU REGISTER
If you have a role in the upcoming CIES conference (presenter, co-author, chair, discussant, etc.), you are required to join CIES or renew your current membership. Once you have completed this first step, you can then register to attend the conference.
If you are presenting, chairing, or discussing or you have any other role in the conference (except non-presenting authors), you must register by December 10th, 2024 to be included in the program. Only those who have registered by the December 10th deadline will be included in the program. If you are not presenting, chairing, or discussing, you can still register to attend. If you are a member you can register with member rates, otherwise you will register as a non-member, with higher rates.
To qualify for CIES 2025 conference rates for MEMBERS, you must join or renew your membership BEFORE you register for the conference. If you are only attending CIES 2025 and do not want or do not require a CIES membership, you can skip this step and register to attend the conference as a non-member.
If your CIES membership has expired, please do not create a second/duplicate account.
