JAM 2007 First-time Attendee FAQs
Q. I have just been given approval to attend the JAM Conference, what should I do first?
A. To attend JAM, you must complete registration and payment prior to the deadlines below.
Online JAM registration is now open through May 20, 2007.

* Online secure payment can be made with American Express, Discover, MasterCard and Visa
credit cards. A check can also be sent, however, it must reach Jenzabar by the registration
cut-off date or the next registration rate will apply.
* When you have successfully registered, you will receive a confirmation along with an access
key that will allow you to return and modify your registration as needed.
Q. Now that I have received my JAM registration confirmation, what do I do next?
A. Save the confirmation access code to make necessary changes to your registration, add guest
registrations, purchase event tickets, or sign up for pre-conference seminars. We also suggest
that you make your hotel and airline reservations as soon as possible. Visit the Conference Hotel
page for information about making hotel reservation.
Q. What is the dress code for JAM and should I pack anything extra?
A. The JAM dress code is business casual. With over 25 concurrent session rooms in operation, you
may want to wear comfortable shoes. The session rooms vary in size and temperature so if you
are sensitive to temperature fluctuation you may also want to pack a sweater or jacket. Casual
attire is appropriate for after-session hours and the JAM Special Event.

JAM that you coordinate a review to capitalize on the widest session coverage possible.
Q. How do I meet other attendees from my product line, department, or region?
A. One of the many benefits of attending JAM is networking and making contacts.
JAM facilitates these benefits by:
* The JAM schedule focuses on specific departments and related products. Attendees will attend
sessions and meet colleagues with similar needs and share information.
* JAM promotes a Regional User Group gathering where attendees can learn about meeting in
their “neighborhood” as well as meet and network with peers.
* In addition, JAM offers sessions by product line, module track opening and module track
wrap-up where attendees can extend their networking.
* A networking must is a visit to the Universe Room where attendees can schedule meetings
with Jenzabar associates, see vendor displays, and check e-mail.
Q. May I bring a guest?
A. Guests are welcome to attend the JAM Special Event on Friday, June 1, 2007. Guest passes are
available for purchase at $70.00 each. Registration is required and payment for guest passes
must be received by May 20, 2007. Guest registration is available via the online JAM registration
process. Select the Add a Guest option in the registration area. No on-site guest registration will
be available. If you have already registered for JAM, you may modify your registration by using
