PPAM Refund/Cancellation Policy for Events

The Professional Photographers Association of Massachusetts (PPAM) has a NO REFUND policy. All sales are final. We do not issue refunds for events, workshops, photographic competition fees, memberships, conventions, or meetings unless the event is cancelled by PPAM.

This policy is in place to ensure that we are able to continue providing high-quality classes and events for all our attendees. As a non-profit educational organization, we invest a significant amount of time, effort, and resources into organizing and promoting these events, and we count on the revenue generated from paid programs and membership to cover our costs and keep our organization running. 

If you cannot attend an event that you have paid for, you have the option to find someone to buy your ticket from you. We would be more than happy to transfer your ticket to another person if you would like. Please provide the name and contact information of the person to whom you would like to transfer your ticket to membership@ppam.com, and we will take care of the rest. (We will not handle the transfer of money however.) This way, you will not lose the value of your ticket, and someone else will have the opportunity to attend the class/event. 

PPAM is not responsible for finding someone to replace you if you cannot attend.

By registering for and purchasing any Professional Photographers Association of Massachusetts event, workshop, photographic competition entry, membership, or convention, attendees acknowledge that they have read and understand that PPAM Membership and all fees are non-refundable.

Please contact president@ppam.com with any questions.
