Course Materials for Attendees
If you do not select your materials format on the registration form, you will receive
your materials in PDF format via email. PDF materials will be available approx. one
week before the seminar. We will send you a link to the materials by email, so be sure to
include your correct email address on the registration form. Note: LSUcle will not sell or
share your email address with third parties. Because neither internet access nor electrical outlets are guaranteed, we suggest that you either print the PDF materials or save
the PDF materials to your laptop, and fully charge your batteries, if you wish to review
them at the seminar.
The registration fee with hard-copy materials is $30 more than with PDF materials.
You may not change your materials selection from hard-copy to PDF for a refund
of the $30 within 1 calendar week of the opening date of the seminar.
The price for walk-in registrations includes a hard copy of the materials by default.
