1.
Registration
Participants should check prior to submission that they will obtain permission
to travel and
appropriate
funding from their respective
employers. They should settle far in advance visa applications.
Participants register
by filling the ad hoc form available on our site for each conference, and by
sending it
(or submitting it electronically) to the TSCF
conference management team. The receipt of these sendings/submissions shall be acknowledged.
Registrations are
individual even though registrants may belong to the same organization.
Accommodation and
flight details mentioned on the registration form are considered as accurate.
TSCF declines any responsibility should registration forms be completed
inaccurately.
Participants are
expected to retrieve their email regularly, and to be accessible and reachable
during the whole period of preparation for the conference.
2.
Fees and Payments
Registrations become
effective upon receipt of a completed registration form and the corresponding
payment, including registration fees and accommodation. Payment
should be made preferably by bank transfer;
bank charges must be paid by the registrant.
For each conference, the amount of the conference
fee as well as the services covered are indicated on the appropriate page of our
site, or are available upon request.
TSCF members pay a lower fee.
All charges are
non-refundable, except in two cases: when we cancel
a planned event, and when we cancel an individual participation for disciplinary
or compliance reasons. In the latter case, an administration cost of 10 to
50% is deducted from the refund. Should a participant be excluded for any reason
during a conference, there is no right to refund.
Refund claims are accepted within one year after the concerned event.
3. Program
Speakers deliver
presentations based on innovative research or experience that bears on (or is
related to) the topics of the conference. Paper or reports of projects are
submitted in the form of an abstract which must be presented in TSCF format. The
Conference Program Committee needs at least 7 business days to examine the
abstracts submitted. Paper presentations can be individual or be included in
panels of speakers.
TSCF reserves the
right to modify the program, replace the speakers or change organizational
details if necessary.
4. Language
The language used in
our conferences is English.
5. Culture and
Values
Participation is subject to acceptance of and
compliance with our
conference rules and
