FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR REGISTRARS
Registrars can apply for financial support to (partially) cover their registration fees. Please indicate on your registration form if you require partial funding. Registrars must apply for financial support by the Early Bird closing date of 31 July 2023 to be eligible for a subsidy. The subsidy may not cover the entire cost of registration but will cover a portion based on what is sponsored toward registrar registrations and based on how many registrars apply. All registrars applying for funding will receive an equal subsidy.
PLEASE DO NOT MAKE ANY PAYMENTS FOR REGISTRATION FEES TO APRASSA BEFORE YOU HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT THE OUTCOME OF YOUR APPLICATION. The sponsorship for registrars’ registration fees will be paid directly to APRASSA and will be deducted from your invoice. You will need to make payment for the balance of your registration fees by 31 August 2023, failing upon which will result in you forfeiting the subsidised rate.
