There are three types of sessions: Individual Presentations, Posters, and Coordinated/Symposia Presentations.

Individual Presentations

These sessions can be a single presenter or group of presenters, discussing the results of a research study or actual assessment. This is a traditional lecture-style presentation that will be 20-30 minutes as part of a block of presentations.

Coordinated/Symposia Presentations

These sessions are a group of 3-4 related presentations, submitted together as a block, or alternatively can be a symposium with multiple speakers on one topic.  These will be approximately 60 minutes in length. We encourage formats such as panel discussions or debates.
