All attendees that pre-register will use express pass registration and pick their badge up on-site. AERA will not mail badges in advance. Remember to print your registration confirmation with bar code and bring it on-site to have your badge printed or use your smartphone to scan the bar code at the on-site kiosk. In addition to the badge, the Annual Meeting Print Program (if you opted to receive one), and a badge holder may also be picked on-site. Once on-site, there will be a $5 replacement fee for lost badges.
Guest Registration Guest registration is designed for the spouse, partner, or family members of the registrant. Guests may visit the exhibits and attend the session(s) in which the registrant is presenting. Guest registration is not applicable for professionals (including students) in the field of education research who will be attending sessions or presenting papers. Guest registration must be included as part of the registration of another individual. Only one guest is allowed per registrant. Guest badges will not include the guest’s institutional affiliation and “Guest” will be clearly noted on the badge.
