By registering for the meeting, you agree to abide by the following policies and procedures.

Code of Conduct
AIC and FAIC are dedicated to providing a positive experience for everyone participating in a conference, workshop, or other event, regardless of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, disability, and physical appearance.
We expect event participants to maintain a cordial tone and respectful attitude during any and all exchanges. Instances of mistreatment, including abusive, harassing, or threatening behavior toward other attendees, organizational staff, host and/or venue staff, or anyone connected to the event or venue will not be tolerated.
If you feel you have experienced such behavior, please report the incident as soon as possible. Reports can be made at the registration desk or event host or by emailing an AIC or FAIC staff member (AIC Annual Meeting: rseyler@culturalheritage.org, FAIC events: Deputy Director Tiffani Emig at temig@culturalheritage.org). At all times, we will protect your confidentiality.
If a participant engages in behavior that violates this code of conduct, we may take any action we deem appropriate, including warning the offender or their expulsion from a session, event, or entire meeting with no refund.
