The County Agent Magazine & AM/PIC On-Line Registration
Dear NACAA Members,
The April 2012 edition of "The County Agent" was recently mailed (within the past 5 days) and should be arriving soon in your mailbox (for those who have requested a hard copy). It may be a few more days before many of you receive this edition AM/PIC Registration edition...in the meantime a copy of the magazine can be found online at: http://nacaa.com/countyagent/
On-line registration was just posted on the NACAA website and can be found on the front page just underneath the SC Association Logo. The direct link is: https://www.formstack.com/forms/?1124715-MIUG7m8VIw
NACAA is utlizing a new software program for on-line registration which should hopefully make the process easier than in years past. The system is still set up to register ONE PERSON AT A TIME...so if you have multiple family members attending - you will need to register from start to finish/submit/make payment - for each person. Why? Many Extension agents need to pay for family members utilizing personal credit cards...and Office cards for the Agent registration fees. Plus...our registration software looks at each person individually registering for many different events.
Early-bird registration ends May 15, 2012....after that date, an additional $100 fee will be applied to each additional new registrant.
