NHSDC 2016 Spring Conference Call for Session Proposals

Deadline for submissions: Friday, January 8, 2016

All proposals must identify the targeted level of the audience: beginner, experienced, guru. Include learning objectives that are action-oriented and concisely communicate what you want the audience to learn. You may wish to submit a proposal by audience level. If you do, please consider adding an additional session targeted towards the beginners, which would mean that you would deliver two versions of the same presentation. Please submit a separate proposal for each. Only the first four objectives will be reviewed.

Please note: NHSDC offers a vendor neutral conference, vendor specific materials and screen shots must be excluded from proposal and presentation materials.

If you have any questions regarding the proposal process, please contact info@nhsdc.org
