SESSION CANCELLATION: We rely on our Members to share their knowledge and experiences to put on a successful International Virtual Week 2021. Please only consider submitting a session if you fully intend to present and accept our presenter policies below. Canceling your session after 8 October 2021 will result in access denial to the event and any materials offered post-event. If you wish to continue with your session cancellation, please contact regional-support@heug.org. |

PRESENTATION: All presenters are asked to prepare a visual presentation using PowerPoint, Keynote, etc. so that virtual sessions have visual information for attendees. Having a copy of the PowerPoint or handouts to take notes is extremely helpful for attendees. Speakers should upload the most current version of the presentation prior to the conference and upload any updates after the conference while the topic is fresh for everyone. Only primary presenters have the ability to upload a session.
If you are an exhibitor and unable to upload your presentation please forward them to regional-support@heug.org. |
