Registration and Housing

Registration Types, Inclusions, and Cancellations

Please note: Everyone who registers is a full-conference attendee; there is no exhibit staff registration type for this event.

We recommend attendees register as soon as possible and no later than April 10 in order to receive necessary communications in advance of the event.

All paid opportunities come with at least one complimentary full-conference registration, which you may use at your discretion. For instance, you can offer your complimentary registration(s) to your staff, company presenter(s) or institutional co-presenter(s), or invite a current or prospective client to the event in support of their professional development.

This registration type includes:

  • Continental breakfast, lunch, refreshment breaks, and entrance to the Networking Reception on Thursday
  • Continental breakfast and refreshment break on Friday
  • All program materials

After your company has purchased an opportunity:

  • EDUCAUSE will send your organization's primary logistics contact a confirmation email.
  • The confirmation email will include a promo code for you to share with applicable personnel to use during event registration. These promo codes can be used by your company's personnel or you may share them with your institutional clients or presenters.

This registration type is recommended for anyone who will attend the event, but will not use one of your complimentary registrations. It includes:

  • Continental breakfast, lunch, refreshment breaks, and entrance to the Networking Reception on Thursday
  • Continental breakfast and refreshment break on Friday
  • All program materials

Registration Cancellations

Registration cancellations received on or before March 6 are entitled to a full refund. There will be no refunds after this date.

To request a cancellation, please send an email to [email protected].

Important Note: Cancellation of your conference registration does not mean cancellation of your hotel reservation. You must cancel each separately. Registrations and hotel reservations canceled after certain dates are subject to processing or other fees.

How to Register

Everyone attending the event must complete their own event registration and will be prompted to log in or create an EDUCAUSE Profile before doing so.

This includes staff who will help set up or work your display, presenters, and those who wish to attend for professional development (i.e. access all event activities, including sessions and networking opportunities). Purchasing an opportunity does not automatically register anyone.

It is important that your staff register as soon as possible in order to receive necessary event communications in advance. We highly recommend registering no later than April 10.

To register:

  1. Visit Registration and select, “REGISTER NOW”.

  2. Select “Full-Conference Registration.”

  3. For any complimentary registrations, enter and apply the discount code that was provided to your organization’s event logistics contact via email.

Please note:  We are unable to accommodate complimentary registrations over what was included with your purchased opportunity. You are welcome to register additional attendees at the designated registration fee.

Are you the primary logistics contact and planning to attend the event?
You will need to complete an event registration as well. Primary logistics contacts are not automatically registered. We do not offer a marketing or registration type just for set up. If you are going to be onsite, you need to be registered for the conference.

Housing

The Hyatt Regency Minneapolis is the official conference hotel. Please visit Hotel and Travel to book accommodations in the EDUCAUSE room block by April 3.

You may also book your hotel through the conference registration process.

The hotel cutoff date to book rooms in the EDUCAUSE block is April 3 (or until sold out, whichever comes first). For additional information on parking, air and ground transportation, and general area information, refer to the Hotel and Travel page.

Important Reminder: Cancellation of your conference registration does not mean cancellation of your hotel reservation. You must cancel each separately. Registrations and hotel reservations cancelled after certain dates are subject to processing or other fees.

Housing and Registration Advisory

Housing for our spring conferences is location-specific and is booked through the conference hotel directly. For the 2024 Cybersecurity and Privacy Professionals Conference, the official conference hotel is the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.

Improper solicitation of hotel reservations from any company other than the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis is not approved. Reservations made by unaffiliated organizations may appear to have lower rates, however they may be illegitimate, not have the rooms to sell, have unreasonable cancellation or change penalties, or be completely non-refundable.

Please be aware of and report any unauthorized solicitations to EDUCAUSE.
