Covid-19 Vaccinations
For your safety and that of our community, all APA staff are required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.  It is also a requirement that all presenters, tutors, convenors and registrants (or the equivalent) are fully vaccinated with a TGA approved COVID-19 vaccine in order to attend a face to face event. Proof of double vaccination or medical exemption, will be required when checking in to the event.

PD hours/points
1 hour of Conference = 1 hour of CPD as required by the National Registration Board.

Intention to photograph/record
The APA reserves the right to use photographs and video footage, taken at any stage throughout the conference, for the purposes of advertising and promoting APA and its events. If you do not wish to comply with this policy, you must notify the APA Conference & Events Team prior to the event.

Cancellation policy
Delegates who find themselves unable to attend the conference after submitting and paying for registration are welcome to nominate a substitute. Any cancellation must be in writing to the National Office, attention to the Conference & Events Department. Cancellations prior to 4 September 2023 will incur an administration fee of AUD$150. After that date, no refund will be given other than for ‘exceptional circumstances’.

Cancellation of registration due to COVID conditions
The APA will offer a refund of the registration fee if the reason for cancellation is due to COVID related government-imposed border closures, lockdowns and quarantining requirements that are in place at the time of the cancellation, or the attendee tests positive for COVID.

This policy pertains to registration fees only. The APA will not reimburse any travel/accommodation related expenses incurred by registrants who intend to/need to travel, regardless of the COVID situation.

NOTE: The standard APA cancellation terms apply to registration cancellations due to a reason relating to an individual’s workplace travel policies. Therefore, it is the responsibility of registrants to be aware of any travel policies or restrictions imposed by their own workplaces and assume responsibility for their registrations accordingly.
