SATISFACTION GUARANTEED
The Illinois Association of Park Districts (IAPD) and the Illinois Park and Recreation Association (IPRA) have instituted a Satisfaction Guaranteed Policy for the Thursday pre-conference workshops. IAPD and IPRA make every effort to ensure quality programs for participants. However, if a participant is not fully satisfied with the content of the workshop, he or she may request and receive a 100% refund of the workshop fee. A participant who wishes to request a refund for a pre-conference workshop must make their request at Conference Registration prior to the conclusion of the workshop in question. Any accreditation or CEUs offered will be forfeited when a refund is made. Refunds will only be made payable to the originator of the check or credit card for the workshop registration. Look for the Satisfaction Guaranteed symbols next to these workshops.
