SPEAKER INFORMATION
Conference Registration
Conference speakers are eligible for a 50% discount from the standard conference rates. Once speakers have provided confirmation of participation in the conference a special promotional code will be issued which is required in order to complete your conference registration. Speakers will not be reimbursed for travel or accommodations.
Conference Audio-Visual Equipment
All session rooms will be equipped with one screen, an LCD projector, a remote control for advancing slides, a podium with microphone, head table with table microphones and confidence monitor.
Preparing Presentations
Most presenters choose to prepare PowerPoint presentations, although other media may also be used. As a general guideline, presentations should not have more than 15 slides. Please ensure that presentations are no longer than 15-20 minutes in length depending on the number of speakers in the session. Note that in the interest of time, presenters will be cut off by the session moderator if a presentation exceeds this time limit.
Session Conference Calls
All session speakers will be required to attend a conference call with their Session Chair and fellow speakers. These calls will be scheduled to occur in September/October, and will allow speakers to develop and modify their presentations with input from fellow speakers and the session moderator in order to ensure a well-rounded session.
Submitting Presentations
We ask that all presenters bring their presentation on a memory stick to the conference.
