​

​

SESSION DETAILS

As a session presenter, you have 90 minutes to conduct your session. Please reserve at least five (5) minutes at the end of each session for attendees to complete the post session survey.  

• Use of slide-based presentations is encouraged. Presenters are welcome to use any presentation format they prefer. You are welcome to download and use the conference logo in your presentation. 

• If your presentation includes a video or other multimedia, please embed the file into your presentation. This will increase your file size, but links can break preventing the use of your video.

• You are responsible for providing copies of all handouts used for your session. 

• Please arrive at your breakout session 15 - 30 minutes before the start of your session. If you need technical support, please visit the NTICC registration desk.

• Breakout rooms will be set in either a classroom layout style or U-Shape layout. The presenter space will be equipped with a podium, table, chairs, and screen.

• Presenters can expect up to 60 attendees for their session(s). There is no session preregistration, so NTICC staff do not know exactly how many attendees will be in each individual session.

​

HANDOUTS

Though not required, presenters are responsible for providing copies of handouts used during their sessions. You may find it convenient to use The UPS Store located at 645 G St STE 100, Anchorage, AK 99501, a one minute walk from the Dena'ina Center. Shipping and printing services along with office and packaging supplies are available.
