Are any workshops included with my registration?

We have certain tickets that will enable you to attend any workshop that we have scheduled, but seating is limited and you aren’t guaranteed a seat until the workshop is confirmed. There is no additional cost for the workshop. To register for a workshop, look for “+ Workshop” in the ticket type when registering.

I already paid my 2026-2027 membership dues. What do I do?

If you have paid your next year's membership dues, register at the member rate, but do not answer “Yes” to the question in the form to include your next year’s membership dues. If you have any additional questions, contact conference@wvagp.org.

Are my dues included in the registration fee?

Member dues are an optional add-on to your conference registration. If you choose to include your dues, we are providing a $5 discount. Student and sponsor registrations include dues as part of the rate.

My registration is being covered by my employer but they will not cover the membership fee. What should I do?

To pay for your membership fee and registration fee separately, please register or renew your membership at wvagp.org. Your membership status won’t be set to “Active” until your dues are paid. If there are any issues or further questions, please reach out to conference@wvagp.org.

I can only attend one day of the conference - do I still pay the entire fee?

We offer a one-day rate for Monday or Tuesday. We do not currently offer half-day rates.

How can I request an invoice or receipt?
