Oral Presentations
- Unless otherwise noted in the agenda, all oral presentations will be 20 minutes in length (15 minutes for your presentation with 5 minutes for questions). Please double-check the agenda to confirm your presentation time and length.
- The length of each presentation is subject to change as we may need to periodically adjust the schedule if speakers can no longer present.
- If you would like to request a specific presentation length other than the default 20 minutes, please email Cara at Ckukuraitis@riversedgewest.org as soon as possible.
- In-person presentations: Your presentation must be uploaded to REW's Conference Dropbox one full session before the session that contains your presentation. The link to the Dropbox account will be emailed mid-January.
- Virtual presentations: If you are presenting virtually, you must pre-record your presentation and upload it to REW's Dropbox account one week prior to the conference. There will be no live presentations unless otherwise noted. You are required to be present during your presentation time slot during the conference for a live, virtual Q&A that will follow your recorded presentation.

Registration Policy
All presenters are required to register for the conference by January 23, 2022.
Cancellation Policy
Please do not submit an abstract if you are not confident that you will be able to attend the conference and make the presentation. Cancellations impose a serious burden on the Conference Committee and negatively impact the overall quality of the program.
If your presentation has been accepted into the agenda but extenuating circumstances prevent your attendance, we ask that you attempt to find another individual to make the presentation and notify us of this change as soon as possible.
