However, speaker discounts can be combined with any one of the member discounts. The 10% “SPEAKER DISCOUNT” will be calculated after the member discount has been applied.
† Proof of affiliation may be requested after registration. Contact Luz Espanola at membership@athenpro.org for the ATHEN discount code. To obtain the AHEAD discount code, visit the members only area of the AHEAD site .

*** You can only purchase a pre-con group ticket add-on if you have purchased a main conference group ticket. You can stream the group ticket add-on up to 2 locations. Order 1 or more site-add-ons (see above) to stream the pre-con to additional locations. You may purchase more than 1 site-add-on to stream to as many locations as you like (on your campus or workplace to fellow colleagues or staff)
