Note, this is a separate event from the 3-day training. Space for this is limited to 5 structure slots. 
Cancellations received 5 days or more prior to the training will receive a full refund, minus a $10 administrative fee. Cancellations made less than 5 days before the training will be eligible for a 50% refund minus a $10 administrative fee. In the event you cannot attend, you may transfer your registration to another participant with advance notice to the USPBSPA by emailing info@pbspamericaconnect.org. In the unlikely event that USPBSPA must cancel or reschedule the training, all registration fees will be fully refunded.
