Welcome! We are pleased to invite you to register for the 2024 AERA Annual Meeting. Registration is required to attend the meeting and associated events, including for presenters, other participants, and those coming as a guest of a participant. We highly recommend you register in advance. The early bird deadline was February 22.
Registration is now open. All registration services are being provided through AERA. To obtain help with your registration, please contact the AERA Registration Support Team on weekdays between 8 am and 6 pm Eastern at registration@aera.net or call 202-238-3200 and select Option 3.

Pronouns AERA is committed to diversity and inclusion and strives to make our Annual Meeting a friendly and affirming environment for all. If you would like your pronouns (e.g., she/her/hers, he/him/his, they/them/theirs) to be listed on your badge, please edit your pronouns under Profile on the Contact Info tab. You can also change this information any time after registration by visiting your Profile accessible from the My AERA page.
Entering the Convention Center You must enter the Convention Center at the Market Street entrance (next to the Dunkin Donuts at 1113 Market Street) to go to registration and pick up your badge.
It is the policy of AERA that all persons in attendance at the 2024 AERA Annual Meeting and Exhibition, including participants who plan to attend one or more sessions, are required to register. This includes presenters, invited speakers, chairs, and discussants. Registration is also required for those attending a business meeting on-site. Registration is not transferable. You must be registered for the Annual Meeting in order to purchase tickets to attend courses and events.
AERA’s policy is that each paper must have one or more presenting authors and that all presenting authors must register for the Annual Meeting no later than March 14. Individuals who are not listed as presenting authors cannot present at the Annual Meeting. If a presenting author did not register for the meeting by March 14, their name will be removed as a presenting author. If no presenting author for a paper registered by March 14, the paper will be removed from the program.
AERA members receive a discount on Annual Meeting registration. In order to qualify for the AERA registration member rate, your membership must be current through 2024. This means that if your membership will expire in December 2023, you must renew your membership for 2024 prior to the time of registration in order to qualify for the member rate. Adjustments and/or refunds for registration fees will not be given to individuals who register at the non-member rate and later join AERA.
