In order to ensure as much time as possible to select the line-up and market this special event
We are Requesting a Call for Papers for the April 2020 event.
We start this process early so that we can have some basic marketing material ready as early as possible, to increase attendance. We also want to ensure that any of our Diamond, Sustaining and Associate Members who are interested in making a presentation at the Annual Conference have the opportunity to do so. We will be selecting a
maximum of 16 presentations

Our theme for the Conference is:

All we need in the short term is your commitment to provide a presentation, name of presenter and a topic. The rest of the required information, so that we can provide contact hours if applicable, can be collected at a later date.
