Welcome!

Thank you for your interest in being a presenter for Idaho Health Care Association (IHCA).
We appreciate you reaching out!
 
Please Note the Following: 
  • We generally contract for only one Summer Convention keynote speaker each year. 
  • If budgets allow, we may have one or two other paid speaking positions throughout the year.
  • Due to our small non-profit status and limited resources, most of our presenters offer services at no charge to the Association.
  • If requesting an honorarium, please specify a dollar amount. Submissions in excess of $5000 (all inclusive for a keynote, up to 2 breakout sessions, and travel expenses will generally not be considered.
  • Sending additional e-mails or phone calls will not substitute for a submission here.
  • Presentations must be educational and not promotional.

Our Speaker Selection Process:  
  • The first step is to identify speakers we feel would be of interest to our conference audience. 
  • The second step is to determine the speaker’s level of interest and availability to present a 90-minute session for us.
  • The third step is to find out whether you are willing to take your presentation “Beyond the PowerPoint”.
  • We are looking for speakers who can engage our attendees and give them opportunities to apply knowledge through case studies, interactive games, round-table discussions and/or visual demonstrations.
When attendees are engaged in the education process and able to relate the information to their own experiences, they are more likely to understand and embrace what is being shared. In our learning sessions, we want our attendees to work collaboratively to solve problems, share information, and leave with at least one new idea they can implement immediately to improve their organization or themselves personally.
