FAQs:

Q: When is the premiere date?

A: The premiere date is fixed on 2 Nov 2020.

Q: What if I can’t make it on the premiere date?

A: Not to worry. All presentations will be pre-recorded and made available (for one-time viewing) after the premiere date. This gives all delegates the flexibility to access the content at their own pace. There will be an optional live zoom QA session with the speakers after the participants have viewed the pre-recorded videos

Q: If I have already made payment, will there be a partial refund of the fees?

A: We recognised that a virtual conference usually costs less. But in lieu of adding more speakers to our repertoire and at least 6 additional training hours to the congress program and offering 1-for-1 masterclasses, we regret that the conference fee will remain the same and there will not be any refund.

Q: If I have not made payment yet, can I choose to cancel my registration?

A: We regret that the original terms and conditions of non-cancellation stands. Hence, no cancellation is allowed and the fees remain payable in full. We allow substitution of attendees without penalty.

Q: Can I transfer the congress and/or complimentary masterclass to my colleague?

A: Yes, you may. The colleague you are transferring to must not be a current participant within your group registration. We seek your kindest cooperation that only one person (either you or your colleague) is allowed to view the sessions and only one name will be listed on the e-certificate upon completion.

Q: How many persons are allowed to watch the congress and masterclass segments?

A: We seek your kindest cooperation that only the registered participant is allowed to watch the segments for one-time viewing. We have a security system that tracks the IP of each participant. Any suspicious activities will be investigated which might lead to black-listing and withdrawal of e-certificate.

Q: How do I access the virtual event?

A: We will send you a confirmation email with instructions to access the virtual event by end of October.
