Speaker & Moderator Toolkit

Information for Plenary Session Speakers:

What is a Plenary Session?
The premier educational sessions of the meeting; topics are presented in didactic format to the Annual Meeting attendance as a whole.

As a speaker, you are responsible for…

Development of a presentation appropriate to the specific topic identified. Your presentation should be designed for the target audience: clinicians, researchers, trainees/students and allied health professionals, and should contribute directly to the learning objective identified for your presentation. You are also responsible for providing balanced information that is free of commercial bias

Attendance at the entire session. To help ensure that the session runs smoothly, your presence is required for its entire duration. We ask our speakers to arrive no later than 15 minutes prior to session starting time.

Presentation Information for Plenary Session speakers…
An uplink Web site will be available for you to submit your presentation prior to the 2006 AAAAI Annual Meeting. Instructions for finding and logging on to this site will be forwarded to you in the near future. The site will be open for approximately three weeks. After the site closes, your presentation must be carried to the meeting, and brought to the Speaker Resource Room 24 hours prior to your talk.

All electronic files must be submitted using one of the software formats listed below:
PowerPoint XP or earlier version
PDF Reader: Adobe Acrobat 6.0
Video Playback: Windows Media Player 9; Quick-Time 6

Even if you have submitted your presentation in advance, please plan on bringing the latest version of your presentation to the meeting on one of the above listed media as a safety back-up for your talk. (If you have not submitted your presentation prior to the meeting, use these same choices of media to carry your presentation to Miami Beach). Please check in at the speaker resource room on-site even if you do not plan to make changes to your presentation – so that we will know you have arrived, and can give you your speaker packet. We ask that you check-in 24 hours prior to your talk.

If you have further questions, please contact Katie Williams at (414) 272-6071 or kwilliams@aaaai.org
