The Pennsylvania Association of Student Assistance Professionals (PASAP) and the Pennsylvania Association for Middle Level Education (PAMLE) would like to thank you for your interest in providing a professional development presentation at the 2018 Conference.
Concurrent breakout sessions will be held during (6) six allocated sessions beginning at 12:30 p.m. Sunday afternoon, February 25, 2018, through 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, February 27, 2018. Two Plenary sessions will be scheduled on Sunday afternoon which will be two hours in length. Monday breakout sessions will be two hours in length and Tuesday breakout sessions will be one hour in length.
The conference planning committee may select presentations to fill double slots or keynote sessions and may request that certain sessions be repeated more than once during the conference.
All concurrent session applications must be submitted online. Previewing a copy of the complete application may be helpful in preparing for your online submission. Paper submissions will not be accepted; the supporting paper document provided on the website is only intended to assist in the preparation of the proposal submission.
The speaker agreement includes PASAP's policies on registration and presenting which must be agreed to before a proposal can be completed and submitted online.
CONCURRENT SESSION ROOM SETUP AND TECHNOLOGY
Presenters will be responsible for providing any technology required for the session (e.g. LCD projector, laptop). Each room will be equipped with a projection screen and a cart with a power supply. Most rooms will be set up classroom style (chairs in rows with tables)
PRESENTATION MATERIALS AND HANDOUTS
Presenters are responsible for duplicating handouts and materials that will be provided to participants. Regular sessions typically draw 15-30 participants while Plenary sessions can draw up to 150 participants. Additional information about estimated attendance will be provided to presenters in mid-February. We encourage you to submit an electronic copy of your handout(s) to the PASAP office at support@pasap.org prior to the start of the conference so that your presentation handouts can be posted on the PASAP website for conference attendees. We hope this will also save time and resources for each presenter.
ONLINE RFP SUBMISSION PROCESS
The online application system WILL NOT allow you to return an incomplete RFP. Please be prepared to complete the application in its entirety and submit. The online application will time out if you take too long to complete it. We suggest that you have your information/answers prepared prior to beginning the RFP. We have included a PDF of the RFP application on our website at www.pasap.org for your review and preparation prior to completing the online application.
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2017
