Register for DEAMcon26

DEAMcon26 Registration Policy

Each year, the Association incurs costs associated with late registrations and no-shows. To take into account these increasing costs, a refund and cancellation policy will be enforced during the registration time frame of DirectEmployers 2026 Annual Meeting & Conference (DEAMcon26). See the information below to review the terms for all attendees:

Canceling & Refunding Your Registration

In the event that you need to cancel your registration, please do so by Sunday, March 15, 2026, in order to receive a full refund for your registration. Registration cannot be refunded after the March 15th deadline. Please contact us for a co-worker transfer for DEAMcon26 or credit toward DEAMcon27. Registrants classified as event “no-shows” will forfeit their registration fees.

For cancellation requests, please send an email stating your intent to DEAM@DirectEmployers.org.

Please note: If for any reason you must cancel your conference registration, please remember to also cancel hotel and travel accommodations. DirectEmployers Association is not responsible for hotel no-show fees or any travel or lodging expenses you might incur.

Late Registration

In order to provide you with the best conference experience, we ask that each attendee register no later than Sunday, March 15, 2026. All individuals who register after the March 15th deadline will be charged an additional $150.00 administration fee to cover last minute expenses and overages.
