Registration Tips

  • Saving Spots:
    Once you add registrants to an event, their spots are automatically saved — even if you haven’t clicked the Submit Registration button. This allows you to continue adding students over time.

  • Submitting Registration:
    When you’re ready, click Submit Registration to generate your invoice. Submitting only once helps avoid creating multiple invoices.

  • Need to Remove a Student?
    If a student is no longer attending, please remove them from your registration to free up their spot. If you’ve already submitted your registration, email wisconsinskillsusa@gmail.com to request the change before the registration deadline. A new invoice will be issued.

  • Don’t Forget to Submit and make sure an Advisor is registered:
    Be sure to go back and officially submit your registration before the deadline — or you’ll be getting a friendly reminder email!
