Streamlining the Registration Process - TxHIMA Now Offers Online Registration
Jerry Hopgood, ZMAC Technologies

Up to now, the process has been the same at TxHIMA as it is at many other associations. To register for an upcoming conference, you would fill out a paper form, and mail or fax it to the Executive Office. With it, you'd attach a check to pay for the registration. With all of the potential headaches that come along with this (e.g. lost mail, incomplete information, misunderstood handwriting), this process has lacked something to be desired.

TxHIMA realizes this, and has taken some actions to help remedy the situation. Via the TxHIMA website (www.TxHIMA.org), TxHIMA members, non-members and AHIMA students alike can register online for conferences, seminars and annual meetings, and can pay for them with a credit card. The primary goal of this online registration functionality was to provide an automated method for registration, eliminating all of the problems mentioned above. Adding the convenience of credit card acceptance for MasterCard® and Visa® allows members the ability to instantly register and pay for a seminar, with the confidence that the transaction is secure.

· The registration process is quite simple.
· Via a webpage describing the seminar or conference for which you'd like to register
· Click on the Online Registration button
· You'll be sent to our online store and asked for some basic demographic information and your credit card information.
· Once this is done, you'll be given an online invoice that you can print.
· You'll also receive an email copy of your invoice.

It's just that simple. Look for more seminars to become available for online registration soon. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to let Madeline know (txhima@txhima.org).
