FISD wants to ensure that our members get maximum value from FISD events. To that end, we will be implementing a new attendance policy following a directive from the FISD Executive Committee to ensure fairness and improve access to our events for all members. When delegates register for an event but fail to attend without canceling their registration, it limits opportunities for others who are eager to attend. Repeated no-shows without cancellation will count against your attendance record and may limit your ability to attend future FISD events.
We are closely tracking attendance and no-shows for events. Beginning in 2026, if a member has accumulated 3 or more no-shows during the preceding 12 months, they will be provisionally blocked from registering for future events. If you are aware that you cannot make an FISD event after registering, to avoid being blocked from future events, we ask you to please inform us of your cancellation as soon as possible. We appreciate your cooperation and commitment to making our events successful and inclusive. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
