Planning and Registration
Answer:
To support the needs and preferences of attendees, two registration opportunities are offered:
- Orlando with online access includes attendance at non-ticketed, in-person sessions and all online-only access offerings until Jan. 31.
- Online-only access includes recorded and on-demand educational sessions until Jan. 31.
On Sept. 9, on-demand clinical and practice management courses will be made accessible via the online platform until Jan. 31. In-person recorded content will be added to the online program and accessible to registrants beginning Sept. 30.
No. In-person sessions will not be available via live-stream, but some sessions will be recorded and provided as archived content on-demand from Sept. 30 to Jan. 31.
Participants will be able to access the online meeting platform until Jan. 31, 2025.
Didactic clinical courses and practice management sessions do not require tickets. Seats for these sessions are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Access to select session recordings will be available online from Sept. 30 to Jan. 31.
Paid tickets are required for the Anesthesia Update and Facial Cosmetic Surgery preconference programs, cadaver lab, hands-on workshops and Office-Based Emergency Airway Management (OBEAM) module sessions. Tickets also are required for the President’s Event.
Separate registration is required for the Beyond the Basics Coding Workshop being held in conjunction with the Annual Meeting. Paid tickets are required for this workshop.
View the online program at AAOMS.org/AMprogram for a complete list of ticketed sessions and events.
If you registered for a paid course, the ticket is included in your registration packet.
A paid ticket guarantees a seat in the specified course.
Available tickets can be purchased through advance registration. After Sept. 8, tickets (if still available) will be only sold onsite at the AAOMS Attendee Registration Center in the convention center.
Yes. To add tickets to an existing Annual Meeting registration online, visit AAOMS.org My Account and follow the instructions at AAOMS.org/AddRegistration.
Registrants also may add a spouse and/or child badge to an existing Annual Meeting registration by following the instructions at AAOMS.org/AddRegistration.
Tickets (if still available) will be sold onsite at the AAOMS Attendee Registration Center in the Orange County Convention Center. Because ticketed sessions and events have limited attendance, early registration is recommended.
Registered attendees who need a replacement badge or tickets should visit the Replacement Badge counter in the Orange County Convention Center onsite.
