Do I need to regularly visit the website?

Once you have registered your details and alert criteria, you may never need to return to the site. Conference alerts are automatic. You may wish to return to the site to use the other facilities for venue search , organiser search and conference submission facilities.

However, if you do not log out, the system will remember your log in details and you can enter the site via the homepage without re-entering the account name and password.

What does the 'alert-frequency' do?

This is a facility to remind you about conferences of interest, where you do not wish to action the email alert immediately.

The first email will be sent to you with details of a conference or course of interest to you.

If the conference is of interest to you, it can be saved by clicking the "save conference" button on the email, and the conference will be entered into your "saved conferences" account. (You may view this on the bottom left of the home page)

Alternatively, you may delete the conference on the email.

Saving or deleting the conference needs to be performed whilst connected to the internet.

After you have saved or deleted the conference, you can then delete the email from your inbox.

You will automatically receive a reminder of your saved conferences on a weekly or monthly basis, depending on your alert criteria. Weekly reminders are sent on Tuesdays, monthly on the First of the month.

How do I register a conference?

If you are the conference organiser, log-in to the website and open "Add Conference" in the menu. Enter the details requested. If the event has it's own website, provide it's URL and this link will be included. Your contact details will automatically be loaded into the conference details.

How do I use the map facility?

Google maps are used extensively for your convenience.

After registration you can select to be sent details of "local" conferences. For this you will need to enter your address and country (Edit Personal Details) and we will then generate a map from address and postcode/zip data. You can then specify what radius of local meeting you wish to be alerted to (Edit Alert Criteria)

Sometimes, an address cannot be located accurately and a pointer will be set close to the desired location. Simply "drag and drop" the pointer to the correct location for mapping in Delegate Registration, Conference Submission and Venue Submission.

Maps are not available for some areas.
