Presentation Slides
If you plan to utilize slides, please use the 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 October 6 to guarantee they will be available to attendees before the conference. Please upload your slides to this Presentations Google Drive folder.
