Information about IPAC registration and meetings

Why is the meeting link shared 2 days before the event?

The joining link is sent 2 days prior to the meeting to ensure attendees have timely access while minimizing the risk of the link being misplaced or misused. 

Is registration required to attend the meeting?

Yes, all attendees must register. Registration confirms your attendance and allows you to receive access details for the meeting. 

What should I do if I believe I’ve been incorrectly categorised?

If you think your registration category is wrong, contact the event support team with details. We can review and update your information if needed. 

Attendee categories

Committee chair 

The chair facilitates discussion. Where necessary, they guide committee members to reach conclusions. 

Committee members 

We recruit standing committee members to the committee body. They are independent and advisory. They make decisions on the topic based on information during the meeting, and information they have been provided as the topic progresses. 

Professional experts 

We recruit or invite experts to provide their opinions to the committee. They have specialist knowledge on a topic, and provide insight as directed by the chair. 

Company representatives 

Two representatives from companies with relevant technologies can attend. Committee members can ask them questions about their product in the context of the procedure being assessed. 

Public observers 

Public observers are any attendees that do not fit into the above categories. Participation is limited to observation only. 

The events support team undertake checks during registration to ensure attendees are in the right category. 

Confirmation of registration

After you register, there is no immediate confirmation message. We approve all registrations 2 days before the meeting and send access details.
