UC Berkeley People & Culture is sponsoring the registration fee for UC Berkeley attendees. Staff are not responsible for the conference registration fee.
If you are not selected in the first lottery drawing on Monday, May 3, you will be automatically put on the waitlist and notified if a seat opens up. After the first lottery drawing, you will still be able to submit this form and will be automatically placed on the waitlist.
NOW 2021 is in high demand. If your schedule has changed and you are no longer able to attend the conference, please update your RSVP on the bCal invite or email nowconference@berkeley.edu(link sends e-mail) as soon as possible to open up a spot for one of your fellow colleagues to participate.
