CHANGE TO SIG OR CHAPTER WORKSHOPS AT ANNUAL MEETING
|
For the 2025 Annual Meeting we will be offering SIGs and Chapters the opportunity to offer either a Symposium or a Workshop ahead of the Annual Meeting. If you watch the video linked above, Lydia describes the difference between a symposium and a workshop but the bottom line is that a workshop should have learning outcomes and skills transfer. A symposium would consist of a series of presentations by SIG or Chapter members. These can be offered either virtually, face-to-face, or both (as two separate events). Please keep an eye on this newsletter and your emails for more on how to submit for a session at the Annual Meeting.
Of course, SIGs and Chapters are also invited to submit proposals for panels at the Annual Meeting.
