IPA Workshop Registration Pricing
Click here for a list of workshop dates and locations.
A word about pricing: Workshops are not a “money-making” venture for the IPA. In fact, in 2024, workshop expenses exceeded revenue by $6,000 – an investment the board was pleased to make in service of our community’s recovery efforts. We’re diligent about setting fees to balance registration revenue with expenses for our experts’ time, travel, and hotel, plus the cost of the meeting room. That being said, we never want financial considerations to keep you from attending a needed workshop. To request financial assistance, reach out using the contact form.
As a thank you to our faithful supporters, we have reserved our best savings for current members and previous attendees. To join as a member, please make a donation of $100 or more today. Members get access to our “members only” site where we post the needed promotion codes. Also, for 2025, attendees of previous workshops can now get an additional “returnee” rebate of $100 if they sign up one month in advance. Please contact executive director, Tim Pyle, with any questions or special needs. We hope to see you at our next event!

Scholarship Program: The IPA understands that not all sufferers may be able to afford the expense of attending a live weekend workshop. To that end, we have established a scholarship fund that can be applied to the registration cost. Click here to make your request at least 30 days prior to the event. We regret that we will not be able to respond favorably to all requests.
Accommodations: You are on your own for accommodations and meals. However, we typically negotiate reasonable rates that give us the best pricing on meeting room rentals and you the best room rates. Please patronize our hotel partners. Details on the registration site for each event.
Release Form: All participants must complete and submit our electronic IPA Workshop Release Form prior to participation in the event.
Cancellation policy: If the IPA cancels the event due to not meeting our minimum registration numbers, we promise you a 100% guarantee on your event fees. Register with confidence in us! Women, if you register and we are unable to provide a female “pee-buddy” (if you prefer), we will provide a 100% refund. If you cancel more than one month prior to a workshop, you are entitled to full refund or a full credit to another workshop. If you cancel less than one month prior to a workshop, you are entitled to full credit for another workshop. Workshop credits must be used within one year.
IPA Event Registrations are now processed through our own event management system powered by CharityEngine.
