Presenters Agreement
NACSW's
convention niche, consistent with our association mission, is to provide
workshops and poster sessions that equip conference participants to
integrate Christian faith
and professional social work practice. As such, we are primarily interested
in workshop and poster submissions that are sensitive to the thoughtful
integration of faith or spirituality and some aspect of social work
practice.
I signify my agreement to the following: (please check all to continue)
If my/our presentation proposal is
accepted, I/we agree - unless a bona fide emergency occurs - to:
- be present at NACSW's Convention 2014 in
Annapolis, Maryland
- register for the convention by no
later than October 17th, 2014 (at my/our own expense at the usual convention
rate - acknowledging that no honorarium will be paid for
my/our presentation)
- make my/our
presentation at the time selected by the Convention 2014
planning committee between November 6-8, 2014
- provide at least 25 copies of handouts at no expense to the convention.
I understand that if I/we do not register for the convention
by October 17th, 2014, my/our presentation may have to be removed from
the convention program.
NACSW will make every effort to provide a data projector (for PowerPoint
presentations) and a screen for all presenters at no cost,
although we cannot guarantee we will be able to do so for every
workshop. We are not, however, able
to provide laptop computers, so please
bring your own laptop if you wish to use a data projector in the workshop room
for your presentation.
If I want to use any equipment for my presentation
other than a data/LCD projector and screen (for example,
overhead projector, connection to the Internet, laptop, computer
speakers, CD player, dry erase board, flip chart, etc.),
I understand I will have to contact the hotel AV department directly and make arrangements
with them to pay for this equipment
at my own expense. |

| I
would like my Presentation to be considered
for one or more of the following Formats: * |
Either a workshop presentation or a poster presentation
I understand that selecting this
option increases the chances of my proposal being
selected.
Workshop
Presentation Only
For examples of workshop sessions, go to: Workshop Examples
Poster Presentation Only
Presenters
summarize their presentation information in visual
representations for attendees
to browse and to facilitate more informal discussion.
NACSW will provide easels, and poster

and/or handouts. For examples of poster sessions, go to: Poster Examples. NACSW is not able to provide poster boards.
|
| If
I am interested in my proposal being considered for a workshop presentation, I
would prefer the following Length of Time for that session |
The majority of workshop presentation sessions will be 45 minutes or 60 minutes long. NACSW has only a limited number of 90 minute workshop sessions. The 90 minute sessions are the most competitive.
I would prefer presenting a 45 minute workshop
I would prefer presenting for
a 60 minute session
I would prefer
presenting for a 90 minute session
Either a 60 minute or 90 minute workshop session would be fine
Any length of time (45 minutes, 60 minutes, or 90 minutes) would work for me
NACSW will make every effort to accommodate the length of time you have requested for your workshop session, although it reserves the right to make the final decision regarding the session's length based on the needs of the overall program.

Schedule
Accommodation Based on Religious Observance |
