Congratulations on being approved to present at an SMEI Webinar.
This service center will provide the information and resources you need to assist you in your professional presentation.
Presenter Checklist
- One week prior to the webinar we will need your PPT deck to review and have as a backup. Please upload it to the document section in our speaker portal. Please note that your presentation must be vendor neutral but you may include one slide at the end for contact information. Please include the SMEI logo on your title slide. You can download the logo below.
- You will be presenting using Zoom from your desktop. You will receive an email invitation as a presenter. Please keep the invitation as a reference in order to log into the conference.
- The presentation should be timed for approx. 45 – 50 minutes with 10 minutes reserved for Q&A.
- Please be available at a computer with a high speed Internet connection. Your computer microphone may be sufficient, but we will do a sound check prior to going live. Please have an external plug in mic available.
- You are requested to use your webcam. The webinar moderator will review this with you during rehearsal.
- Please log into the conference no later 20 minutes prior to start time for a rehearsal and sound check.
- From experience we have found that a vendor neutral 500+ word blog post on the subject theme is very helpful to our members and also to promote the webinar. If you can submit a MS Word document we will publish it for you at http://blog.smei.org with your byline. Please email the article by reply to the email you received from SMEI with the link to this page.
- If you use Twitter, please tag @smeiorg and use the hashtag #smei for any promotion of the event
- We will send you a URL link for our calendar page to use in your posts.
- After your presentation you will be able to log into our speaker portal to see your session evaluations.
