This registration process also includes our rules and regulations as well as our waiver forms which you can print out and have at your table or we will have copies for you day of show. You need to read, approve and sign all of these forms in order to be properly registered at PIAE #8

FINAL STEP

We now use Docusign for all our registration needs. This is great for you! No more downloading, printing and scanning. Simply click the registration link and sign with your finger or mouse. You may read a part that says "print this out" but if you are doing this online you won't need to, that is only for people who choose to manually print and sign. Lastly you are required to upload your ID or Passport. Simply take a picture with your phone and upload it when you sign the document. If you have your license please also attach that. Filling out your registration does not mean you have a booth with us unless you have purchased a booth. Only register if you purchased a booth or have a spot in a purchased booth. Mahalo!

STEP 1: The Online BBP Test

The State of Hawaii has 7 approved companies that can issue your license through an online Blood Borne Pathogens test. The test can be taken at your own pace, and if you fail you are allowed to take it again for free. We highly recommend using ICE TRAINING (listed below). Jeff Godin, the owner works with us to ensure that everything on our end matches his so that you have a painless and relatively easy process. The other companies are still valid but you are on your own if you choose anyone but ICE. Below are the list of the approved companies.

• • ​​ICE TRAINING INSTITUTE (recommended) - TAKE NOW

• NEW LICENSE + BBP - Deadline July 6th, 2019, nothing will be accepted after this date

  LICENSE NO BBP - You have an approved BBP and only need the state license

STEP 2: The Health Form

All artists are required to complete a Tuberculosis & Syphilis test also know as the "Health Form". Both your BBP and your health form go hand in hand. You must complete both or you will not be approved for an official license. Plan ahead with your health form! You may go to a Dr, Clinic or any other health practitioner who can administer the test and sign off. The results in America often take 1-2 weeks. In foreign countries these tests may take longer. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE TO GET TESTED!​

He will align with our coordinator to ensure that nothing falls through the cracks. Your Hawaii License, if not mailed early, will be available at our show.

DOH has not yet processed your docs 2. Something is missing 3. DOH has not yet received the docs from Ice Training. If you have any questions you can Contact Jeff regarding your application.
