Registration
Whether you are an individual or group delegation, it’s easy to register for SSICSIM!
Rules and Regulations
Here at SSICSIM, we take our rules and conduct very seriously. Our expectation is that as members of the conference, you do the same! It is imperative and mandatory that these values are upheld and that all participants (Staff, Secretariat, Directors, Delegates, Teacher Advisors, etc.) are treated equally and with respect. Please read our rules and regulations below.
Registration Information
What is a Group Delegation?
Group delegations are any group of two or more delegates who register together. Typically group delegation are high school Model United Nation teams. If you register as a group delegation, at least one teacher adviser or faculty member must attend with your delegation.
Please note that SSICSIM does not require a ‘Head Delegate’ for group delegations. The teacher adviser or faculty member in attendance will serve in this role, and will be required to attend the ‘Head Delegate & Faculty Sessions’ hosted by the Secretariat at various points during the conference. The teacher adviser or faculty member responsible for the delegation must RSVP on behalf of their delegation before individual delegates can complete the remainder of the registration process.
What is an Independent Delegate?
SSICSIM allows individuals to register without a group or as part of a school. If you register as an individual delegate, your parent/guardian must take full responsibility for your conference registration, conference fees, and attendance. While they are not required to be present at the conference, the individuals listed as your primary and secondary parent/guardian contact must be reachable during the conference in the event of a problem or emergency.
Additionally, by attending as an individual delegate you also serve as a ‘Head Delegate’ and are therefore required to attend the ‘Head Delegate & Faculty Sessions’ hosted by the Secretariat at various points during the conference. Individual Delegates do not need to complete the RSVP form. Instead, they must register via the Delegate Registration form.
How to Register
A Delegation RSVP form and an Individual Delegate Registration form will be posted on our website on May 15th.
[For Group Delegations] Your Faculty Advisor/Head Delegate will be responsible for filling out the Delegation RSVP form on behalf of their delegation indicating delegation contact information and approximate size. Once our Registration team confirms this RSVP, your delegates may fill out the individual delegate form indicating their delegation affiliation and committee preferences.
[For Independent Delegates] You may directly fill out the Individual Delegate form and indicate your status as an Independent Delegate, committee preferences, and payment confirmation.
Payment Policy
Given that Early Bird and Late Registration requires that we hold your spots, we kindly request that delegates registering within these timeframes pay immediately. For the Regular Registration period, delegations will be charged instead (through invoices sent post-registration), and delegates do not have to pay SSICSIM directly at the time of registration.
Cancellation Policy
Delegates may cancel their registration at any time. Partial refunds will be issued depending on time of registration and circumstances, with 50% refunds being issued for Early Bird Registration and 25% issued for Regular Registration. After October 15th, 2023, refunds will no longer be issued. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns at registration@ssicsim.ca!

Frequently Asked Questions
Financial Aid
We try to make our experiences as accessible as possible at all times. We ensure our pricing structure is one of, if not the most affordable for delegates in comparison to similar conferences and relative to the experiences and opportunities we offer at the conference.
We never want attendees to have finance or payment as a barrier to entry to our conference. So, Individual Delegates and Group Delegations can apply for reduced ticket prices directly through our registration form! Contact us to learn more!
Registration is Now Closed!
SSICSIM 2023 registration has now closed. If any spots open up, we will be in touch with our waitlisted delegates on a first come, first serve basis. To be added to our waitlist, please fill out the Waitlist form.
No payment is required to join the waitlist. However, if you are contacted to join as a delegate, the registration fee would mirror our Late Registration fee of $100 CAD.
Ensure you read our Rules and Regulations and Registration Processes above before signing up.
