 PRESENTER INFORMATION

Top Five Tips for All Presenters:

  1. Remember that ACH Virtual Research Forum attendees are interprofessional, international and diverse overall. To help promote an inclusive and welcoming environment, please be sure to speak clearly and slowly, utilize a headset microphone if available so that all may hear clearly, and avoid using acronyms or jargon unless you explain them.
  2. Limit the information on your slides. The slides should not contain your talking points word-for-word. Use a minimum font size of 28pt.
  3. Include graphics/images whenever possible and avoid overly detailed graphs and charts that attendees won't be able to read.
  4. Practice: Time yourself to ensure you'll leave appropriate time for questions. Moderators will help you stay on track, but you want to be sure to have enough time to get your key points across.
  5. Test Your Connection by logging in 15 minutes before your presentation and meeting with the moderator and other presenters for that session.
