NOTES:
  1. The only pre-registration method for the Tradeshow and Continuing Education is online via the REGISTRATION page of www.metrocon.info.
  2. Since the computer system tracks each registrant through his/her email address and not his/her name, Every registrant must have his/her own distinct Email Address to be able to register online. In other words, two or more people cannot register with the same email address. Anyone not wanting to register online will have to register on-site during the conference.
  3. The only method of payment accepted online is credit card (Visa and MasterCard).
  4. On-Site Registration Information for the trade show and CEUs:
    • Acceptable methods of payment are cash, check, and credit card (Visa or MasterCard).
    • Payment for the tradeshow must be made at the Registration Desk at Dallas Market Hall.
    • Payments for CEUs must be purchased at the CEU Help Desk at Dallas Market Hall
  5. Due to high demand, those registering for continuing education classes will not be allowed to sign up for more than one class designated as “Barrier Free.” TBAE [Texas Board of Architectural Examiners] only requires one (1) of the annually required eight (8) CEPHs for Texas Registered Interior Designers to be designated as “Barrier Free,” and METROCON is trying to accommodate as many attendees as possible.
  6. Those registering for continuing education classes will not be allowed to sign up for more than one class during any given time slot. METROCON’s goal is to provide as many attendees with as much continuing education as possible, and signing up for classes that will be impossible for one to attend is discourteous to one’s peers and unacceptable to METROCON Committee.
  7. Adding Classes:
    • METROCON's computer system does allow for changes to your class schedule. To do this go to http://www.metrocon.info/app/classes-editor/ and enter the email address and password you registered with originally.
    • INSTRUCTIONS:
      1. Use the same email address that you originally registered with and click on ADD CLASSES, only sign up for the desired additional classes.
      2. DO NOT re-enter the classes that you have already signed up for because the system will reject your second registration instead of integrating your new classes into your existing registration.
  8. If classes sell out online during pre-registration, stand-by openings may still be available on-site during the conference due to no-shows, but they cannot be guaranteed. If you are already pre-registered for at least one class then you will not be charged on-site for taking additional classes as a stand-by attendee.
  9. All Continuing Education classes will start promptly on time. Anyone arriving late will forfeit his/her seat to stand-by attendees. NO EXCEPTIONS.
  10. REFUND POLICY:
    All monetary transactions are to be conducted in U.S. dollars.
    Attendees of the Tradeshow and/or Continuing Education classes: No refunds will be given once online transactions have been completed through the website.
