Guidelines
Before you jump to the online resources, here are some guidelines to keep in mind as you craft your presentation:
- Have fun. Take risks. Don’t be afraid to try something new. You are among friends.
- Include at least one interactive component in your presentation. Q&A at the end is mandatory. What more can you add to the attendees’ experience?
- It is strongly recommended that you provide a takeaway for your audience, and it can be anything from a white paper or an infographic to a follow-up work list or reading list (your slides don’t count as a takeaway). Your takeaway will be ADRP will make it available to attendees after your presentation.
- Use best research and reporting practices. Openly cite any sources (including any images used in your slides).
