Applying for a Member Group

For Speakers
Register for a forum account if you don't have one. Login to your forum account using the "Login" button in the top menu bar, then visit the Groups page of your profile by clicking this link.

On that page, look for the "Speakers" group, then click the "Request to Join" button found to the right. The button should change to "Pending" to let you know that the request was made successfully.

Once you have requested to join the Speakers group, allow up to 24 hours for staff to verify that you are speaking at ForumCon 2014. After that point you should have access to the boards in the Speakers & Organizers area.




For Sponsors
Be sure that you have created your forum account using an email address from your company as this will make the verification process move quicker to gain access to the boards in the Speakers & Organizers area. If you did not register using a company email address, click the icon found in the bar at the lower-right hand corner of the page and this will take you to your account settings. From there, you can click the "Edit" link next to the Email option to change the email address associated with your account.

If your email address is correct, login to your forum account using the "Login" button in the top menu bar, then visit the Groups page of your profile by clicking this link.

On that page, look for the "Sponsors" group, then click the "Request to Join" button found to the right. The button should change to "Pending" to let you know that the request was made successfully.

Once you have requested to join the Sponsors group, allow up to 24 hours for staff to verify that your company is sponsoring ForumCon 2014. After that point you should have access to the boards in the Speakers & Organizers area.
