Registrations

Checking the chosen category

At the time of registration in the ECOS system, for categories that require some type of proof, it will be required the upload that certifies the chosen category. Verification of this document may take up to 1 business day. Therefore, we suggest that, to avoid any inconvenience, you do not leave it until the last day of the registration period. Only after validation by the SBC team, payment methods will be released. Applicants will receive informative emails at all stages of their registration in IHC 2024.

Discounts for caravans

The IHC 2024 organization will grant special discounts for student caravans (undergraduate or graduate). For every 10 (ten) students registered and paid in the same caravan, 2 (two) extra free registrations (courtesy) will be granted, in the same category as those paying. The free registration applies exclusively to the XXIII Brazilian Symposium on Human Factors in Computing Systems, that is, it does not include extra activities such as workshops and mini-courses.

The steps for caravan registrations are as follows:

• Students who are going to participate in the caravan registration must register on ECOS and pay their registration fees.
• The registered students who will benefit from the free registration must also register on ECOS but should not make the payment.

Once registrations are completed and paid, the caravan coordinator must send an email to: faturamento@sbc.org.br with the subject “Caravana [name of your institution]“, containing in the body of the message the list of names of the students who are part of the group, indicating the names of paying students and the names of students entitled to free registration.

Payment methods

Payment for registrations can be made via bank slip (boleto bancário), credit card, Banco do Brasil account debit, purchase order (nota de empenho), and billing through the SBC registration system. Payments by bank slip and debit close on Oct 4th, 2024, while payments by credit card, purchase order, and billing will remain open until the last day of the event.
