Policies & FAQs
To register online, you must have a CEC account. This can be either a current CEC member account or a free guest account; both allow you to complete online registration. If you do not already have an account, please create a free guest account.
If you are registering by check or purchase order (PO) instead of online, you do not need to create an account in advance. If you do not already have a CEC account, one will be created on your behalf to process your registration and provide you with a registration confirmation.

All cancellations will be processed in the same manner as original payment. If paid by credit card, the refund will be issued to the card on record within 5- 7 business days. Payments made by check or purchase order will be refunded as a check and may take up to 30 days after the event to process.
The CA CEC Unit strives for access to all activities—to the fullest extent possible—at our events based on an awareness of participants' needs and appropriate planning. CA CEC's events and meetings include, but are not limited to, in-person or “live” and virtual events.
For CA CEC events, you are asked while registering to indicate the area(s) in which you will need assistance. Once the registration process is complete, a team member will follow up with you to review your survey responses and discuss your needs.
We ask that all requests for reasonable accommodations at our events be made as early as possible and at least one month in advance of the event, so that we may best meet individual needs and provide outside services, if necessary. On-site requests will be met to the best of our ability; however, available resources may be limited or unavailable.
