Event Disclaimers
Thank you for choosing CBA programming. To support the association’s sound business practices, we have the following policies in place.
REGISTRATION BEST PRACTICES:
- Use CBA’s Member Compass for individual user credentials to access member pricing.
- Check program availability before registering; use the a la carte option if attending all sessions is uncertain.
- For multi-session certification programs (i.e. CBLA), each registrant must attend all sessions in a calendar year to receive certification. Due to the nature of the certification process, no attendee substitutions are allowed.
PAYMENT:
- Effective 8/9/2024, payment is due at registration—no invoices will be issued. This ensures better event management and resource allocation.
CONFIRMATIONS:
- Automated confirmations are sent upon registration; detailed instructions follow one week before the program. If not received, check your junk folder or contact education@cbaofga.com.
CANCELLATION POLICIES:
- Employee substitutions are welcome.
- Written cancellations received:
- 30+ days prior: 100% refund/credit.
- 15–29 days prior: 50% refund/credit.
- Less than 15 days: No refund/credit, but substitutions allowed.
- A $50 fee applies for switching between in-person and virtual options.
PRE-PAID PACKAGES & EARLY BIRD SPECIAL PRICING:
Banks who choose pre-paid packages & early bird special pricing, will understand the following:
- Prepayment is required by the designated deadline.
- No Program substitutions or cancellations. Employee substitutions are welcome.
- Banks are responsible for registering for each program benefit.
CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS:
Participants must complete at least 80% of the course to earn credits. Virtual attendees must submit CPE codes provided during the session.
VIRTUAL PROGRAMS - CBA'S LIVE STREAM:
One paid registration permits one participant and access to program resources. Additional participants require separate registrations. Thank you for adhering to these policies to help us deliver exceptional experiences. Note: Please note we reserve the right to change speakers, event dates and locations or reschedule/cancel seminars when necessary.
CONSENT TO USE PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES:
By registering for or attending CBA events, participants agree to allow CBA to use their image or voice in event-related media, including photographs, videos, and audio recordings.
SUITCASING:
Suitcasing is the act of soliciting business during the exhibit networking times or in other public spaces by non-exhibiting companies, including another company's booth or a convention center/hotel lobby. It is CBA’s objective to do everything possible to protect our Exhibitors and community banker attendees from suitcasing.
