Workshop and Events FAQs
Q: Will my registration be tax-exempt?
A: Yes, our conference registrations are automatically charged as tax-exempt.
Q: Can I register online with PO (Purchase Order)?
A: When registering for an ED311 event you can either pay with a credit card, or choose to be invoiced and pay later. If you choose the invoice option, there is a PO field where you can enter your PO#, if you have it. After registering, please email a copy of your purchase order form to PO@ed311.com. Please note that your registration is not considered complete until we receive either your purchase order form or payment (via check, credit card, or ACH).
Q: Are there multiple registration prices?
A: We now offer group registration discounts on some events! We also offer a discount if you would like to access your conference materials digitally instead of getting a printed conference workbook. We no longer offer early payment discounts. If you have a very large group of attendees or a group of students that you’d like to send to one of our events, please contact ambrose@ed311.com.
Q: Do I need to pay in advance for my registration?
A: We must receive either a valid purchase order form or payment before the date of your event. Simply filling out the registration form does not complete your registration. Your registration is only considered complete once we have received either an approved purchase order form or payment by check, credit card, or ACH. You can email your purchase order to PO@ed311.com. Registrants of our online virtual events will not receive digital access until we have received your PO or payment. Registrants of an in-person event will not be able to attend the event without a PO or payment.
Q: I need to cancel my registration. What do I do?
A: Please read our cancellation policy (below).
Q: Can I substitute another person in my place for a conference I am registered for?
A: Yes. Submit your request via our Substitution Form. Please note that we must receive your substitution request at least 3 business days before the date of the event for your attendee to be included on our list of attendees at the event registration table. If you need to make a last minute substitution, that is not a problem. Just make sure your sub checks in using the original registrant’s name and tell our staff at the registration table that they are a substitute.
Q: Who can I ask if I have any additional questions?
A: If you have any further questions, please email Danielle King at dking@ed311.com.
Event Cancellation & Substitution Policy
Cancellations: In general, we do not issue cancellation refunds. If you can no longer attend an in-person event and would like to cancel, your options are to either (1) send a substitute to the event or (2) switch to the online version of the event. If the event you are attending does not have an online component, then we will issue a refund less a $30 cancellation fee, as long as we receive your cancellation request within 2 weeks in advance of your event.
If you have not yet paid for your event and no longer wish to attend, you can cancel your registration by contacting chpowers@ed311.com.
If you have an extenuating circumstance please email dking@ed311.com.
Substitutions: Substitutions may be made through this form in advance of any of our events.

How-to video - Accessing your online training at events.ed311.com
In January 2019 Texas School Administrators’ Legal Digest rebranded and is now ED311. Under ED311, we continue to offer the same programs and services as we have for more than 30 years. The rebrand reflects the company’s goal to expand its offerings of professional development resources.
On this page you will find all of the forms you will need to do business with ED311. Both business entities (ED311 and Texas School Administrators’ Legal Digest) have the same parent company and, therefore, the same EIN/Tax ID #. We’ve found that most school districts have been able to simply change our vendor name to ED311, rather than set up an additional vendor account. Also, please note that we are still able to accept checks and POs made out to Legal Digest; however, all future invoices and materials will reference ED311.
