Please note: All speakers are required to register for the conference to present. Please register by February 22.

Presentation Slides

If you plan to utilize slides, please use the UPCEA template (go to File -> Make a Copy -> Entire Presentation). Presenter(s) will use ONLY this template. Slides will be uploaded to your session room laptop and the conference mobile app. Note: if you will not utilize slides, please email Jacqueline Romero at jromero@upcea.edu and we’ll instead have a welcome slide in the room noting presenter/moderator names and session title. Slides are due by March 1, 2023, in order to guarantee they will be available to attendees prior to the conference. Please upload your slides to our 2023 UPCEA Annual Conference Presentations Google Drive folder.

  • Naming convention:  "[Session Title] - [Last Names of Presenters]"

  • Please bring a back-up copy of your presentation with you on a flash drive
