ASTC 2023 Annual Conference
October 7–10, 2023
Charlotte, North Carolina, USA
Registration Information
Registration will open for the ASTC 2023 Annual Conference in June 2023, but we are pleased to provide a preview of registration rates to help with planning and budgeting.
In addition to covering the costs for meeting rooms, audiovisual, food and beverage, travel for plenary speakers, and more, your registration also enables ASTC to support and serve our community in other ways, including advocating on behalf of our field, hosting ongoing conversations to connect with and learn from colleagues, offering professional development opportunities throughout the year, and more. We also invite you to consider adding a voluntary donation to your registration, which will help make the conference available to those less able to pay.

Optional Events
In addition to the main conference registration, you will have the opportunity to sign-up for optional events that may require additional registration and payment, including Preconference Experiences and the host party at Discovery Place. Details will be part of the registration process.
We will also ask as part of the registration process about your expected participation in plenary sessions, meal functions, and other events that are included in your conference registration. This is to help us to get an accurate count of how many people to expect so the room can be set appropriately.
Single Day Registration
ASTC offers an opportunity for single-day registration for those who are unable to participate in the full conference at a rate of $260.
Single day registrations permit access to conference sessions, meals, and events for the selected day only. If you would like to attend for more than one day, you will be charged for a full conference registration; multiple single-day registrations are not available.
Preconference ASTC Intensives and the party are available for purchase outside of your paid single day registration date.
Student Registration
Full-time students are welcome to register for the conference at a discounted rate of $360. A valid student ID and/or proof of enrollment is required prior to registration.
Presenter Registration
ASTC greatly appreciates the time and commitment of all presenters. In order to ensure that all contributors are fully integrated into the conference and the larger ASTC community, we expect session leaders, presenters, poster leaders, facilitators, and others to register for the conference at the normal rate and to participate in as much of the conference as possible. In addition, presenters are responsible for any fees associated with the session/workshop in which they present.
Exhibitor Registration
All exhibitors must submit an individual registration for the conference, whether as part of the complimentary registration that comes with the booth or an additional registration. Each 10′ x 10′ exhibit booth includes two complimentary, full-conference registrations, and additional registrations can be purchased separately.
In addition to those bundled with the exhibit booth, additional registrations for exhibitors are available at $630 each.
