EEBA Conference Policies and Procedures
Fee Policy
The EEBA organization awards a full-conference registration to each
presenter in recognition of their participation. It is the policy of the
conference that no presenter receives an honorarium. In some cases, a
presenter can only attend the conference if his/her expenses are paid.
EEBA will evaluate such a request on an individual basis.
Conflict of Interest Policy
The Excellence in Building Conference has maintained a high standard
for providing quality building science education to its attendees. When
surveyed, our attendees tell us they appreciate that the sessions are
based on sound educational learning principles and do not reflect the
sales or marketing of products or services. When agreeing to participate
as a presenter at an EEBA Conference, you agree to maintain this level
of quality by providing impartial, product neutral information. If you
have any questions related to this policy, please contact the conference
coordinator at dona@eeba.org.
