NAES will assess a $125 processing fee on all approved refunds received before Friday, October 23, 2026. Approved refunds will be processed within 15 business days after the conclusion of the conference.
Attendees may be substituted until the conference registration deadline of Friday, October 23, 2026. After that date, all registrations are final and no refunds will be made. Refunds will not be given for failure to attend for any reason, late arrival, unattended events, or early departure. Individual paid events, such as luncheons, are non-refundable.
All registrations and reservations are subject to acceptance. Registrations and reservations received without payment will be returned. Registrations are non-transferable and cannot be split among conference attendees.
Any and all liability of the National Association of Episcopal Schools (NAES) with respect to registration, reservations, cancellations, changes in the location or content of the program, and refunds is limited to a sum no greater than the registration fee paid.

NAES or its contractors may be photographing or videotaping sessions and events at Biennial Conference 2026.
