Use the following check list to ensure you’re prepared for the upcoming event:
If requested by your session facilitator/organizer, your biography should be professional and short enough that it can be read aloud in 1 to 2 minutes. Your session moderator will pull information from your biography for your introduction. When preparing your biography, be sure to focus on highlighting your qualifications as they apply to your talk. Feel free to include something unique, fun or interesting about yourself.
ASDWA will provide onsite technical support, including a Windows 10 laptop running the latest version of PowerPoint and a laser pointer, for all speakers. If your presentation requires the use of your laptop or equipment, or you have additional needs not outlined here, please coordinate with ASDWA.
