Events
ACfPU events by and large, particularly our educational sessions, are open to registered members only.
To reiterate Our event allocation policy, We allocate first to registered members 2 weeks in advance, and then distribute to non-registered members 1 week in advance.
Every slot is granted to members on a first come first serve basis. You will receive a confirmation e-mail from a committee member, if a slot is granted. A reminder to all will be sent to you prior to the event.
Event slot is not transferrable under a name different than yours, nor refundable, should a cost incurs. Members are responsible for keeping profile information up-to-date with ACfPU. Please refer to Conditions and Privacy Statement in upcoming sections.
Please understand that under most circumstances We have to notify venue provider and co-organisers in advance and confirm event logistics. Hence, please help us to register by deadline and RSVP method We highlight in Our invites, and understand that most of Our events are strictly capped by a head-count.
Media
Journalists or other media-related personnel will attend Our events periodically. Please be aware that Your opinions do not represent ACfPU, nor, should You wish, Your employer. http://www.acfpu.org.uk/cn/about/pr.html
