The 2011 annual NMEMTA Conference, scheduled for September 14-18, is ready to go! 

A schedule can be found at the '2011 Conference' page and may be downloaded for use. The registration form can emailed to 'nmemta@pvtn.net'. A confirmation email will be returned stating that you are registered and noting any session changes which had been made. 

Remember to list three (3) choices during each session listing them as '1', '2', and '3'. We will always attempt to give you your first choice however session cancellations and classroom  overloading may occur.

Registration will begin at 7:30am with the keynote address kicking off at 8:30. Lunch will be provided on Saturday and the general membership meeting will be held. Board elections will be held Sunday morning beginning at 0815.

Preregistration is preferable. Board members will be at Socorro during pre-conference (14-16 September) and a registration mailed on Monday or Tuesday, 12 and 13 September, will not be processed. In that case, be certain to bring your schedule with you so we may expedite check in.

The core conference cost is $50 for active NMEMTA members and $65 for non-members or inactive members. If you are not a member of NMEMTA, part of the higher registration cost includes a registration fee. Do not forget to provide both a P.O. number AND the address and a contact for third party payees. We are not able to accept credit cards.

New this year are conference scholarships. The Association will pay core conference fees for 10 active members. The scholarship form is available by clicking the following link –Scholarship. Note that the scholarship is NOT available for pre-conference events. Please DO NOT send the scholarship application to the NMEMTA. Doing so will delay processing. Send them to the address provided at the top of the form...

In accordance with our bylaws, an active member is one whose dues are current. If you did not attend last year's conference and have not sent in the 2011 registration fee, you are an inactive member.

Beginning with 2012, the Board has decided to make all memberships two years vice year-to-year to simplify administration. Membership fees will be $35 for two years. All currently active members will receive a registration notice in January with the option of paying for an additional two year membership or extending an existing membership for two years total. Inactive members will be required to pay for a new two year membership.
