For Presenters

To Our Presenters:

We need the following for each session. If you have not already provided this information, please have the session organizer provide it as soon as possible.

Audio-Visual Equipment Request. All workshop rooms have a podium, flipchart, and markers and are arranged theatre-style with movable chairs. If you need extra equipment (such as one or more microphones, a second table or extra flip charts) please include this in your AV equipment request. LCD and overhead projectors must be specifically requested. ACR does not supply computers; you must provide your own computer if you wish to use power point in your presentation.

ACR contracts with an audio-visual company to provide overhead and LCD projectors only for those presenters who requested them. The rental of this equipment is very expensive and ACR orders in advance to keep costs down. Please submit your AV requests by e-mail to conferences@ACRnet.org as soon as possible, but no later than September 10, 2007. We may not be able to fill requests made after that date. If we are unable to accommodate your last-minute request for AV equipment, renting a projector from the AV provider at your own expense will be your only option.

Speaker Release Form. We need a signed Speaker Release and ACR Principles Form from the organizer of each session. Please check with other presenters in your session before signing this document.

Presentation Handouts. In their registration packets, conference attendees will receive a compact disc containing presenter handouts. If you would like your session materials included, please submit them as soon as possible, but no later than September 10, 2007. Specifications for materials are as follows:

• Must be submitted no later than September 10, 2007.
• In Microsoft Word or PowerPoint handout format.
• Page limit of 6 single-sided pages for 90-minute workshops.
• Page limit of 12 single-sided pages for 3-hour pre-conference session.
• Page limit of 24 single-sided pages for 6-hour pre-conference session.

Please Note:

• ACR cannot reproduce session handouts beyond those described above.
Presenters may distribute additional materials during their sessions. The copying and distribution of these materials is the responsibility of the presenters. There is a business center in the Hyatt Regency Phoenix and copying businesses located within two blocks of the hotel and convention center. ACR does not reimburse conference workshop presenters for copying or any other expenses.

• To receive the necessary registration materials and a conference badge, all presenters must complete and send in a Registration Form. Presenters who do not plan to attend any sessions or events other than the ones they are presenting still must register and should check the box on the Registration Form that says, "Check here if you plan to attend as a Presenter only".

• Presenters are encouraged to register for the conference at the discounted presenter rate of $325.00 for ACR members and $425.00 for non-members. If you are not an ACR member, we invite you to join ACR now and register for the conference at the discounted member rate. You may complete the on-line membership form prior to registering. You may also apply for membership at the time you register by downloading and printing an application form to complete and submit with your registration.

• Presenters wishing to offer books, tapes, videos, etc. for sale may purchase space in the exhibit area or sign up for a free hour in the Author's Corner. (E-mail to conferences@acrnet.org to reserve a time in the Author's Corner). Presenters may not sell anything in the conference facilities during workshop or plenary sessions.

Please e-mail conferences@ACRnet.org or call Marya Kolman at 614-226-1063 if you have any questions or need more information.
