AMC Annual Conference Attendance Support Policy

The AMC has adopted a policy of assisting members of the AMC who are students, retired, or other non-wage-earning members to attend AMC annual conferences, by waiving the cost of conference registration fees, according to the following rules:

1. The person requesting annual conference attendance support must be a member of the AMC and must be a student, retired, or other non-wage-earning member.
    
2. The conference location must be at least 500 km (as the crow flies) from the member's normal place of residence.
    
3. Each request for payment of the conference registration fee, received in writing by the Secretary at least one month before the start of an annual conference, will be considered by the AMC Executive.
    
4. Payments under this policy are capped at a total of $1000 for each conference and will be authorized in the order in which the applications are recieved.
    
5. The approval of such payment will be entirely at the discretion of the AMC Executive. If the payment is approved, the AMC will pay the member's conference registration fees.
