Registration for AP Training

Registration is open until all spaces are filled, although we encourage you to register early as workshops fill quickly. After you submit the AP Registration Form via mail or fax, an e-mail will be sent confirming the receipt of your registration form. The confirmation e-mail will be sent to you approximately one week after receipt of your registration form and payment.

E-mail and the APSI webpage will be our main methods of communicating with you. Please be sure to include your correct email address on your registration form and please continue to check the APSI website for new or updated information until the start of the AP sessions.

Wait List

The website will be updated to indicate workshops that have filled or canceled. If your registration form is received after a workshop has reached maximum enrollment, you will be contacted by phone or email. You may choose to be added to a waiting list, choose an alternate workshop, or cancel your registration. No cancellation fees will be applied in this case. If you choose to be added to a waitlist, please note that very few slots open up once a workshop has filled. Your payment will not be processed unless you are enrolled in the class.

Course Cancellation

In the event that we must cancel a workshop, registrants will be notified by email as soon as possible and a full refund will be issued if the registrant does not choose to attend an alternate session.
