All registration changes must be received in writing by the IPA. An individual who is registered for an IPA event and who is unable to attend may: (1) send another individual in his or her place incurring no service charge; (2) receive credit in the amount of the event which is good for all IPA events and merchandise; or (3) receive a refund. Credits and refunds will be issued as follows: if written notice is received more than five business days prior to the event, the refund or credit amount will be subject to a $25.00 service charge. If notice is received within five business days, a $50.00 service charge will be assessed. Individuals who do not cancel their reservation and are not in attendance are responsible for full payment. All credits for events and merchandise expire each June 30. In order to receive Administrator Academy credit, the Illinois State Board of Education requires attendance during the workshop.  Individuals arriving late or leaving early – for any reason – are not eligible for Academy credit.  If you have further questions regarding this policy, please contact the Illinois State Board of Education’s Certification Division at 217-782-4321.
