Sign up to be a facilitator!
We would love to have your help facilitating the many great sessions at the conference. The general guidelines are listed below to give you a sense of the facilitator responsibilities. Once the conference program has been decided, the conference grid will be listed below. At that time you will be able to add your name next to the Facilitator: label for the sessions you wish to facilitate. Jenn and Debbie will be available at the registration desk to answer any questions you may have regarding facilitating.
And thanks a lot for your help!
Session Facilitator Guidelines
In the session folder you will find:
- Presenter Agreement Form for the speaker(s)
- Evaluation forms
- Warning markers of 2, 5, and 10 minutes

Facilitators should:
- Verify biographical information to introduce speaker, which should be included in the session folder you will pick up at the conference registration desk.
- Discuss with the presenter if they wish to address questions during or after their presentation.
- Give the Conference Agreement Form to the speaker. Please have the speaker fill out the form and return it to you before the conclusion of the session.
- Hand an evaluation form to each attendee.
- Let the audience know when questions are allowed.
- Please take Starting and Ending Attendance.
- Sit in a location where the speaker can see you with the warning cards that will show when time is almost up.
- After the presentation, publicly thank the speaker and remind the audience to turn in their evaluation form before they leave the session.
- Return the folder with evaluation sheets and signed Speaker Agreement Form to the Registration Desk.
