Registration

Below is a form that you can fill out to register online. If you want to send a paper registration form, you can either print this webpage or download a printable registration form (in PDF format or in DOC format) and send it to ELNA. (Note that even if you are paying by check, you don't have to use a paper registration form - you can register online before mailing your check.)

If you want to send a check and/or paper registration form, you may mail it to:
ELNA
PO Box 1129
El Cerrito CA 94530
USA

If you choose to complete the online form and click on the button "Register" at the bottom of the page, your information will be submitted to ELNA and the first step of registration will be done. To complete the registration, you will need to pay the registration cost. After clicking "Register" you will be taken to a page where you can type in your credit card information and pay online (the same system as when you order books from ELNA and pay online).

Please complete a separate form for each registrant.
