Participants of the SROA Annual Meeting have been asking for more interactive sessions. If appropriate for your session we recommend this alternate presentation format:
*In order to comply with CE requirements one of these time formats MUST be followed, and the presentation MUST be 60 minutes in totality.
ALL presenters participating in CE activities are required to state whether any commercial or financial relationships might directly or indirectly relate to the subject of their presentations. Whether or not such a relationship exists, presenters are required to make a statement in writing before their presentation, as well as announcing it at the time of their presentation. The intent of this policy is not to prevent a speaker with a financial relationship from making a presentation rather SROA seeks transparency. Any relationship should be identified openly so that participants may form their own judgment about the presentation with the full disclosure of the facts.
The second slide of your presentation, the slide immediately following your title slide, MUST be a disclaimer about any actual or perceived conflict of interest. If you are giving multiple presentations, the slide must be included in each presentation.
To help you meet this requirement, please use this SROA approved PowerPoint template. Slide two is the disclosure. If you do not show this slide, a member of the Program Committee (or your session greeter) will interrupt your presentation to be sure you verbally disclose your status. We prefer that this not be necessary.
SROA does not print any presenter slides for attendees. Instead your slides will be downloadable as a PDF file in a password-protected area of the SROA website so registrants can print them at home, bring them to your presentation, and follow along and make notes as you speak. If you do not provide a copy of your slides, you must, at a minimu, provide a handout with relevant informaiton. Here are some tips for creating engaging handouts.
Presentations are due Thursday, September 22, 2022. If you make updates to your slides after that date, they can still be updated using the following instructions:
BE SURE TO BRING YOUR PRESENTATION ON A FLASHDRIVE TO THE MEETING. You will upload your slides directly to the laptop in the room assigned to your presentation before your session. AV staff will be available to help.
NOTE: To support greener, more sustainable conference practices we will not provide hard copies of presentation materials. Materials will be available through the SROA Conference mobile site for attendees' use before and after the conference. Please upload your presentations and materials by September 22, 2022. Speakers must have agreed to provide a PDF of their slides or a handout with relevant information in order to be selected.
Be advised that the biggest request and complaint from meeting participants is when the presentations are not available. Speakers must have agreed to provide a PDF of their slides or a handout with relevant information in order to be selected. If you do not submit your materials, we will advise participants to contact you directly to obtain a copy of your materials. Additionally, it may impact your participation in future SROA Annual Meetings.
All rooms will be equipped with a Windows computer, a computerized projection system for PowerPoint presentations, a slide advancer and a podium with a microphone. If you require additional AV equipment and it was not noted on your abstract submission, please contact info@sroa.org.
Please note the following and be sure to talk to AV staff no less than 24 hours prior to your presentation if you have the following:
If there is any change to your session it must be approved by SROA Staff. Depending on the timing of the change relative to CE credit approval your change may or may not be accommodated. Please contact info@sroa.org immediately if there are any changes including speakers, additional speakers, session description, or AV needs.
