Key points to note prior to making a submission
- All presenters will have free entry to the conference but will need to cover hotel accommodation and travel.
- All submissions must be able to show application/research/insight.
- Sessions should be inspiring, potentially evidence-based and provide valuable take-aways. They should not be regarded as ‘sales pitches’.
- Ideally at least one of the presenters for the session must be from an ISE member organisation.
- All submissions for the 2019 programme must be made via the online submission system using the online links.
- Should your proposal be accepted for the conference, please expect a possible rehearsal/dry run before the actual conference to ensure accurate timekeeping and relevance of content.
