IAIA training courses will be held 6-7 May 2023 at the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK). Separate registration fees apply, and pre-registration is required.

Not able to attend IAIA23 but still want to take a course?  Not a problem!  A small additional registration fee will apply; see the PDF registration form for details.

Please register early! Courses will be cancelled if they do not reach the minimum number of paid participants by 13 March 2023.   After 13 March, registrations will be accepted subject to availability and receipt of payment up until the 12 April 2023 final registration deadline. In consideration of the trainers and their need to prepare appropriate quantities of course materials, registrants may not change courses after 12 April 2023.

We are offering a variety or opportunities, such as registration bursaries and discounts, for young professionals and student participants of IAIA23. For details, please go to https://conferences.iaia.org/2023/financial-aid-opportunities.php.
