The presentation file will be reviewed to verify that:

  1. All required CE Compliance Slides are included
  2. The content is suitable for our interdisciplinary audience
  3. The presentation is free of commercial content
  4. The presentation generally matches up with the learning objectives for the session.

Download required CE Compliance slides here.

Requests for a microphone and audio or video equipment on site will be granted on a first come, first served basis and availability cannot be guaranteed.
