Sessions will run between 80-100 minutes each spread throughout the week in which 4 to 5 presentations will run with a session organizer as a moderator. The audience will attend virtually without a camera or microphone. Session chairs will introduce their session and each presenting author LIVE, then each pre-recorded presentation will be played followed by a LIVE 5-minute Q&A period. The audience in the virtual room will be able to ask questions and interact with the session attendees in the text-based chat feature. Pre-recording presentations provides for a more efficient flow, control over the time allotted each paper in the session, and most importantly minimize technical difficulties.

Each virtual session and event will be recorded and made available on the virtual platform through the On-Demand Feature. This On-Demand content will be accessible during the virtual conference and for one week following for registered participants.

Shorter presentations have shown to be more engaging in a virtual format – allowing you to more effectively communicate to the virtual audience. The video will need to be uploaded NO LATER THAN 15 June 2021 and MUST be a video file in MP4 format. Should your sponsor, organization and/or employer require approval of slides be sure to allow time for this process.
THERE IS NO PRESENTATION TEMPLATE THIS YEAR
VOICE OVER SLIDES is SUFFUCIENT for the VIDEO PRESENTATION (Presenter on camera is not a requirement)
There are several ways to record your presentation and we recommend you use the tools you are most comfortable with. CLICK HERE for guidance on using some of the most common tools available today and best practices on recording your presentation.
On 25 May 2021 each selected presenter will be emailed instructions on how to upload the video file in one of TWO ways:
