The $25 savings associated with online registration is a waiver of payment and not a reimbursement rate. You must choose your courses at the time of online registration or you will be charged a $25 processing fee! Individuals who register online will automatically have the $25 fee that JCAHPO charges to process ACE applications waived.

Group Discount Available

Applies to JCAHPO Full Package Only (Not valid for the already discounted ATPO Plus JCAHPO Full Package). If more than one person from the same office registers for the Full Package, JCAHPO offers the first registration at the non-discounted fee and a $25 discount for each additional Full Package registration. The name of the person paying the non-discounted fee must be written on the registration form under “Full Package” for verification. Discount must be requested when completing the registration form - no retroactive discounts will be granted.

Registration Confirmations

Registration confirmation will be mailed to the home address listed on the registration form; otherwise, the work address will apply. Online registrants will receive an automated e-mail confirmation at their preferred e-mail address. Carefully review the confirmation when you receive it! If a course is sold-out, it will NOT appear on the confirmation. If you have not received your confirmation by October 1, call JCAHPO at (800) 284-3937 or e-mail registrations@jcahpo.org.
