Step 1. Application
There is a two-step process involved with applying for participation at the Workshop. First, participants Apply using the RegOnline system and then their applications are reviewed by the workshop director and instruction team. Within five business days, applicants will receive email notification as to whether or not they are accepted for Registration, which implies a commitment on behalf of the participant to attend and pay the tuition fee. Full registration will be a second step that will happen in late November for only those accepted to participate. PLEASE NOTE: Application does not guarantee that you will be selected for participation and until you receive notification of acceptance your status is "pending".
The application system will be available at 1pm ET on Tuesday, November 8, 2011 and will remain open until the workshop is full (24 participants). We have already had a very high level of interest in the workshop and encourage early application. Apply online at: http://www.regonline.com/dpmwmiami2012.
Step 2. Notification
If you have been accepted, you will typically be informed of the application decision within one week of submission. The number of participants is limited to 24.
Step 3. Tuition
Tuition includes the Sunday evening session, lunches and breaks, and a Thursday evening dinner. Transportation and hotel accommodation expenses are not covered by this tuition fee.
Please note: while we do everything possible to encourage attendance at the workshop, we regret that we do not have the resources (human or funding) to assist with tuition or lodging costs, visa applications, or general stipends. If we can help in other ways, please let us know.
Step 4. Travel and Lodging
ICPSR does not directly arrange for participant travel and lodging. Please visit the University of Miami Visitors webpage for information about travel to and lodging in the Coral Gables, FL area.
