Welcome to the Carolinas Region Drivers Education Online Registration

THERE HAVE BEEN SOME CHANGES IN THE REGISTRATION PROCESS SO PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS BELOW!!!

How does Online Registration work?

Very simple. Click on the 'Registration' link below and it will bring you to the NEW Registration site.  The site will open in a separate window so you will be able to flip back and forth between these instructions and the registration site as needed.

If you have not used the clubregistration.net site before, there are a few steps you will need to do before you can complete your DE application. 

The first thing you will need to do is create an account with a username and password. 
This is done by clicking on the “Create Account” button at the top center of the home page.

Once you have that you will need to complete your background information.  The sections below will need to be competed before you can complete your DE application but it will only take a few minutes.  The good news is that once it’s done, you will not have to provide it again unless something in your background information changes.  The sections you need to complete are:

1) My Profile

    Fill in all your personal profile information

We accept registrants based on receipt of your payment and signed confirmation page, giving preference in the first 3 weeks of registration to PCA members, so make sure you have your PCA MEMBERSHIP NUMBER correctly entered in the “My Profile” section of your background data when you fill out the registration form, or you WILL NOT get preference.

2) My Vehicles

    Include all that you may be using in the events.

3) Driving Resume

    In the Notes section, please state where your last DE was and what run group you were in.

    Run group assignments are based upon this information.    

4) In Case of Emergency contact (I.C.E.)

    We are using this information IN LIEU of the Medical Form of the past.

Once your background is done, click on the “EVENT SIGN-UP” button, find the correct Carolinas event and click on the “Register for DE” button. 

It might sound like a lot, but it’s really not.

Payment

When you submit your application, you will be directed to an Events Payment Screen.   Please print this page, and mail it in along with your check to the address listed.  You can print the page using the "print" button in your browser or by clicking "CTRL P".  YOU MUST PRINT THE PAYMENT PAGE!!  Remember - acceptance into an event is based on the postmark of your payment, NOT the date of registration so be sure to mail your payment as soon as you can.
Fee Structure (per driver) for CMP in March
a) PCA Members:              $225
b) Non Members:              $255
c) Instructor - 1 student:    $100
d) Instructor - 2 students:  $100 - refunded at event

Two Driver Cars …

Each driver MUST fill out their own application. Please be sure that both drivers have the same car in their profiles and that both enter the event with the same requested car number.  You should also add a note in your driving resume that states the name of the other driver so we can match the two applications together and ensure you are in different run groups.

Status  

You will be able to check your status on the clubregistration.net site by viewing the Roster for the event. 
All applicants will have a status of "Pending" until payment is received.  Once payment is received you will receive an EMAIL from clubregistration.net that will let you know if you've been CONFIRMED or WAITLISTED.  So please make sure the email entered in the “My Profile” section will accept documents from this address.  Our Drivers Ed events sell out quickly, and we usually get more applicants than we have room for, so not everyone will be "CONFIRMED".
If you are CONFIRMED, it means that your application has been processed, and we look forward to seeing you at the event.  The email will provide you with all the information you need, lodging information, access to the Tech Form, etc.
If you are WAITLIST, not all is lost because people do cancel and we fill their spots from the waitlist.  You will be contacted via email regarding the next steps, but if you do not get confirmed, you will be refunded your money.  

PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL OR CALL CONSTANTLY ASKING IF YOUR CHECK WAS RECEIVED OR WHERE YOU ARE ON THE WAITING LIST!! We process almost 180 applicants for each event and can't respond to every email or phone call. We will process checks as they are received, when time allows. Believe it or not, the registrar does have a life outside of Drivers Ed and would like to live it once in a while, so your status may not be updated immediately. PLEASE BE PATIENT!!

Car Numbers

For the 2008 events, car numbers will be assigned on a FIRST PAY FIRST SERVE basis.  You can REQUEST a particular number when you are registering for the event.  If your number is available, it will be assigned to you for that event.  If your number is not available, you will be assigned one that is as close as possible to the one you requested.

INSTRUCTORS – VERY IMPORTANT!!!  PLEASE READ!!!  IT’S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

If instructors are needed for the event you can attend for FREE!!!  Did that get your attention? 

All instructors will submit their application and entry fee as described above BUT PLEASE make sure you let us know you are an instructor and that you will be instructing this event.  During the first three weeks of registration, priority will be given to this instructors that have completed the PCA National Certification.  Make sure you have your PCA INSTRUCTOR NUMBER correctly entered in the “My Profile” section of your background data when you fill out the registration form, or you WILL NOT get preference.     Instructors will now have an option of requesting 1 or 2 students.  We will do our best to honor these requests, but it may not always be possible and they will be honored based on when your application and check are postmarked.  Keep in mind, this means you have to plan ahead and plan accordingly.
If you instruct 1 student, you will drive at the reduced rate of $100 (instead of $225).
If you instruct 2 students, you will drive for free and you will receive your check back when you fulfill your instructing obligations.

Cancellations/Refunds    PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY!!!
While no one ever wants to cancel, we know that sometimes things come up that are unavoidable.  Entry fees for all participants (that includes instructors) are refundable only if requested in writing (email is fine) to the Registrar, 3 weeks or more prior to the event.   (NOTE: there is a $25 administrative fee for all refunds.)

Within 3 weeks of the event, NO REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED.
NO EXCEPTIONS!!!
