Registration
What time does registration begin?
Registration will begin on a either Friday, February 12 or February 19, 2027 at 1:00PM Eastern / 10:00AM Pacific. Exact date will be selected by January.
Can I register by phone?

What is the registration fee?
Registration rates are posted on the Registration page.
Do I have to be a LOEX member to register?
No, though LOEX members have registration priority for the available spot. Of the roughly 200 registration spots that will be made available, a minimum of 10 spots are set aside for nonmembers. Additionally, if there is a wait list, LOEX members will be placed at the top.
Also, registration rates are cheaper for participants from LOEX member institutions. If you are not certain of your membership status, please just register. Membership issues can usually be resolved after registration. If you have any questions, please contact contact@loex.org.
How do I know if I'm registered? Then, how do I know if I have paid?
You should receive an automatically-generated email confirming your registration; you may print off this registration confirmation email for your records. Be sure to check your spam/junk folder if you do not remember receiving the confirmation email.
You should also receive a receipt once you have paid. Again, please check your email folders carefully in case it has been sent to a junk or spam folder.

After registering, when should I receive my first communication from LOEX?
***Not counting the auto-generated confirmation email*** LOEX will send an initial "Welcome" email to everyone who has registered by the first week of March. This email will cover a few LOEX items (e.g., pre-conference workshop registration; breakout session interest survey). If you have not received this email, please a) check your spam folder and b) "white list" the email address attendees2027@loexconference.org to help ensure you receive future emails.
When is registration payment due and what are accepted forms of payment?
Conference registration payment is due by Monday, April 19, 2027. No payment is due at the time of registration. Registration can be paid by check (via mail) or credit card (via mail, fax, phone or online payment).
Is there a registration deadline?
There is no registration deadline, but we recommend that you register as soon as possible, as space is limited. There is no "day of" or even "week of" registration, as we need to confirm the headcount with the hotel at least a week ahead of time.
If I am unable to attend, what is the cancellation policy?
The last day to request a refund is Monday, May 3, 2027
