Waitlist Policy

• If an event is full, participants can place themselves on a waitlist by registering online and providing a form of payment to be charged if a spot opens up (debit card, credit card or paypal are acceptable forms of payment).
• If a spot opens up, the participant will automatically be pulled off the waitlist and their form of payment will be charged for the full amount of the event. Participants will NOT be notified before their form of payment is charged.
• If a participant does not wish to be watilisted for an event any longer, they must contact the office ASAP so they can be removed from the waitlist.
• If a participants does not notify the office and is pulled off the waitlist at least one week before the event start date, they will adhere to the cancellation policy and fees. If a participant is pulled off the waitlist within a week of the event start date and can no longer attend, the office will issue a refund for the event.
• If a participant is waitlisted for an event and signs up and pays for a 2nd choice event, the participant will need to contact the office if a spot opens up so their 2nd choice event can be canceled and refunded.

There are a few ways to register. You can register online through the Rocky Mountain website under the ‘Events” tab, you can download an application form from this site and mail it to us at P.O. Box 775143, Steamboat Springs, CO 80477 or fax it to us at 970-879-6760. You can also email us at events@psia-rm.org and request an event application be emailed or mailed to you. We do not accept phone registrations as you need to sign the waiver for the event and cannot complete that over the phone.

If you register online a confirmation receipt email is sent. After the registration cut off date for an event has passed you will also receive an email and/or a letter confirmation which includes a receipt and all the meeting information including time, meeting place and discounted lodging information for the event.

We send confirmation emails and/or letters two to three days after the registration cut off date. If you register for an event after the registration cut off date a confirmation email will be sent to you within the next few days. We also send out a three-day reminder. You can also view this information on the event page for the event you registered for.

On the registration deadline, we look at the number of people signed up for an event and determine if there are enough people to move forward with this event or if we have to cancel the event due to lack of registrants. We need at least 8 people registered up for any one clinic for it to ‘go.’

No, we do not take event registrations over the phone due to the signing of the waiver that is required. Online registration or by fax only.

During the online registration process you may receive notice that the event you want is full and waitlisting. If you would like to join the waitlist, you will need to provide a credit card at check-out. If a spot becomes available, you will automatically be moved into the event and your payment method will be charged. If you place yourself on the waitlist and no longer wish to attend, please notify the office ASAP so we can remove you from the waitlist.

If you cancel or switch your registration BEFORE the 21 day registration deadline, there is no switch or cancel fee. If you cancel or switch your registration AFTER the 21 day registration deadline and 72 hours before the start of the clinic/level 1 exam OR 1 week before the start of the Level 2 or higher level exam, you will be assessed a 50% fee. The 50% fee will be waived if you provide a person at least one week before the event, as your replacement for a cancellation or switch. If you are a ‘no show’ on the date of the event there is a 100% cancellation fee.

Medically verified cancellations will receive a 100% refund IF written medical verification and a request for refund is received in the Rocky Mountain office within two weeks of the event. Please fax your medical verification to the office at 970-879-6760. If you weren’t sick enough to go to the doctor, a 100% cancellation fee is assessed if the registrant cancels or is a ‘no show’ on the day of the event.

There is no refund of your registration fee if you are a no show. There is a 100% cancellation fee if the registrant cancels or is a ‘no show’ on the day of the event. Please click here to view our cancellation policy. 

The office reserves the right to cancel an event if we don’t have a minimum number of registrants or some other reason out of our control. The office can cancel an event at any time but we try to do it within a week of the published First Chair Price Increase deadline (3-4 weeks prior to an event start). If an event is canceled, someone from the Rocky Mountain office will contact you to let you know of the cancellation and give you your options. If the office cancels an event, we offer a full refund or will switch you into another clinic with no switch fee.

Yes, any clinic in our curriculum guide counts as your educational credit requirements. You don’t have to take a clinic in the discipline in which you are certified. You can take a crossover clinic, a ‘learn to’ clinic or start a certification in another discipline. We just want to make sure you’re still learning!

If you get behind on your clinic credits, in the next dues billing statement you will be assessed a prepay fee and your education status will be moved to “Inactive.” This is a ‘pre-payment’ on a future clinic that you need to attend during the upcoming season in order to meet the clinic credit requirement.

If you’ve been injured and can not take clinics during a season that you are due clinic credits, please provide the office with medical verification. Once we have medical verification stating your injury, it will be reviewed by the Director of Education for approval of a medical waiver.

A former member, from one to five years in arrears, may pay back dues to become active and retain certification.

When you want to transfer from one division to another, please contact the division you are wanting to transfer to and they can help get your account updated.

You need to become a Registered Instructor and provide verification of any certifications that you might hold in another country. This will enable us to determine which certification level you would be eligible to attend. You remain a Registered Instructor (no certification) until you are successful at the level of certification attempted. Please call the office for more details.
