| Registration Type | Until May 3 | After May 3 |

| Private Sector Government Self Employed or Retiree |
$350.00 $225.00 $150.00 |
$400.00 $275.00 $200.00 |
Private Sector: This encompasses all attendees who do not qualify for the “government” or “self-employed or retiree” rate. This includes employees of consulting firms, vendors, manufacturers, railroads, associations, and other companies, firms, or organizations.
Government: This encompasses attendees currently employed by a government agency or public university, or serving as an in-house consultant in a government agency. This category is determined by current employment status. Meeting the criteria in the NCUTCD Operating Procedures for “government member” does not authorize the use of this rate if the person is not currently employed by a government agency or public university.
Self-Employed or Retiree: This encompasses attendees who have retired from full-time employment (either public or private) or are a sole proprietor of a business or firm. This category also includes employees or contractors working for a 501(c)(3)-eligible nonprofit with five or fewer total paid employees or contractors.
Registration for the meeting may be completed either online using a credit card or via PDF registration form. NCUTCD strongly recommends that attendees register and pay using online registration and credit card.

After that, reservations are accepted on an availability basis. The base NCUTCD conference rate at the Holiday Inn by the Bay is $275.00 single or double occupancy. Note that the room block may sell out well prior to the deadline, so making reservations early is recommended.

There were a very limited number of rooms offered at the government per diem rate; however, these rooms have already sold out. We apologize to those persons who were unable to book at that rate.
