Registration

This year, rather than providing travel bursaries to institutions, we have made an effort towards an equity-based model for ticket prices, intended to create some balance for those CoP members who spend significant time and expense to attend the Summit. Therefore, ticket prices have been adjusted somewhat proportionately for local Lower Mainland campus members and for members traveling from Vancouver Island or Thompson Okanagan, and for those from the North and other more distant areas of the province. Geographically influenced ticket prices are:

Lower Mainland - $350
Vancouver Island or Thompson Okanagan - $250
Other Regions (including Kootenays, Cariboo, North etc.) - $150
Student - $75

*excluding GST

Registration for this event will be done through Eventbrite. Eventbrite accepts all major credit cards including MasterCard, Visa and American Express. Prior to this open registration announcement, we used a delegation model to get a diverse cross-section of campus representation from BC post-secondaries. As a result, there are limited seats available and we encourage interested participants to register early so you don't miss out!

*Registration Deadline: February 28^th, 2019 at 5pm PST.
