  SABER is piloting a membership add-on during registration. In most cases, adding membership during registration is the lowest-cost option for non-members. Select the non-member rate + membership option for your category to join or renew your membership.

  • Member rate: current members not renewing
  • Non-member rate: participants not joining SABER
  • Non-member rate + membership: join or renew SABER membership during registration (available to both new and current members). This option combines the member conference rate with the cost of membership.
