My registration has been paid for but I am not able to attend anymore. What can I do?
Most conference sessions will be recorded and available for asynchronous viewing through January 31, 2021 so you can participate anytime your schedule allows. There will be no cancellations or refunds given for this conference. Also, there is no fee for substituting registrations and you may transfer a registration at any time on or before November 30. To make a substitution, email membership@txgifted.org with the contact information of the attendee who is currently registered, along with the information for the person who will be attending in their place. Your substitute will then receive an email confirmation. Please keep in mind that if you have registered at the member rate for the conference, your substitute will also need to be a member or will be billed for the difference for the non-member rate.

I cannot attend the conference in real time. Will the conference be recorded?
Yes! Most conference sessions (100 hours of professional learning) will be recorded and available to registrants in an asynchronous capacity through January 31, 2021.

When will I have access to build my session schedule?
By late-October you will receive information to access the online conference platform where you will be able view all sessions, build your schedule, and explore additional resources.

How do I receive credit for the hours I earned?
Included in your electronic conference program is a professional credit form. It is the participant’s responsibility to collect the codes from the sessions attended and mark them on the form. Be sure to make a copy of your credit form to keep for your records before you turn it into your district coordinator or the person who keeps track of your training hours. You do NOT need to turn this credit form into TAGT–the association does not keep track of or collect credit forms for members.

Do you offer any other G/T training?
Yes, TAGT offers conferences throughout the year in which professionals can get their G/T training hours. Please visit the TAGT website for upcoming events. We also have TAGT On Demand for convenient, quality G/T training courses online. Visit the TAGT On Demand page for more information.

The pre-registration deadline (November 30) has passed! Can I still register?
