100 Super Early Bird Slots Added – Hawaii International Conference on Education

Note this update from the Hawaii International Conference on Education that will take place next January.

Aloha Past Participants,

Due to many requests, we have added 100 additional slots for our Super Early Bird Rate for the 2020 Hawaii International Conference on Education. Take advantage now before the next Call for Papers goes out (this Thursday evening) to the masses and you miss out on this special rate.

With university budgets continually a factor for a lot of our attendees, we have again decided to offer a Super Early Bird Rate of $315 for the first 300 people (100 remaining) that register for the 2020 Hawaii International Conference on Education which will be held January 4-7, 2020. (See our website at http://www.hiceducation.org for full conference details)

To register instantly for the Super Early Bird Rate, visit http://hiceducation.org/registration/ and click the “Register Online” button.

Our next Call for Papers for the 2020 conference will be sent out Thursday May 23rd, so be sure to begin preparing your proposals! Visit http://hiceducation.org/call-for-papers/   for full details on submitting.

A few important notes about the Super Early Bird Rate:

1. Only the first 300 registrants (100 remaining) are eligible for the rate.
2. As in past years, we will offer FULL refunds for these rates as long as you make your refund request by December 14th, 2019. So there is no risk if your plans change, or you cannot participate.
3. With only 100 slots remaining, the Super Early Bird Rate should sell out within just a few days. And will definitely sell out right after the Call for Papers goes out to the masses.

We look forward to seeing everyone in 2020, and hope this  lower rate can make it a bit easier for some to be able to participate in the conference.

Mahalo (Hawaiian for Thank You),
Andrew Burge
Conference Coordinator
