Early bird pricing
You snooze. You lose.
Many of the IBM Technical University and IBM Technical Symposium events offer a special discount rate to registrants that enroll on or before a specified date. To learn whether the event you would like to attend has early bird pricing, select the event from IBM Technical Conferences web page and view the tuition section.
Volume discount pricing
Let us help you get the best deal for your team!
Sending a team of people to an IBM Technical University or IBM Technical Symposium event can be expensive. IBM recognizes that in many companies training budgets have been reduced while the need for training is increasing. For the first time ever, when IBM customers purchase three (3) event seats at regular price, IBM will discount additional seats at 20%. That's a $299.00 (US) savings on additional symposium seats and $499.00 (US) / €390.00 (EMEA) savings on additional university seats. It's easy to find out more how to take advantage of this volume discount pricing, just contact us at wiles@us.ibm.com (US events) or tenaerts@be.ibm.com (EMEA events).
Alumni discount pricing
Your continued loyalty to our events is appreciated.
In 2013, we are delighted to offer an alumni discount price to IBM clients that attended a 2012 IBM Systems Technical Symposium or University. If you are a 2012 attendee, you and employees of your company are eligible to receive a special $235.00 (US) savings for a symposium seat or $400.00 (US) / €300.00 (EMEA) savings for a university seat off the regular tuition price. This represents a 16% discount off the regular price. If eligible, use promotion code A6A when enrolling.
Enrollments will be cross-validated. Unauthorized use of the promotion code will result in a billing for the full price of the event.
Note: Alumni discount pricing ends at the Early Bird pricing cutoff date.
