Registration Categories
The Registration process is split into three tiers in order to better serve membership needs. The 1st tier is the Early Bird Registration period. It begins Monday, 1 February and will last through Monday, 25 April. This period provides an opportunity to register for the Symposium at the lowest possible cost. Immediately following the Early Bird period is the 2nd tier or Advance Registration period. It extends from Tuesday, 26 April through Friday, 20 May, just prior to the start of Microwave Week. The 3rd and final tier is the On-site Registration period that will remain the same as in past Symposia, starting on Saturday, 21 May, the first day of Microwave Week, and ending on Friday, 27 May.
