Presentation Details

Presentation Type

Breakout Session. A standard session from a single speaker or group of speakers in a traditional presentation style. These sessions should include interactive and engaging activities for participants. Sessions are 50 minutes. Workshop. A two-hour immersive experience. Workshops should be hands-on and more interactive than a traditional breakout, allowing participants a deeper dive into concepts, tools, and skills. This comes at an additional cost to attendees.*NEW* Poster Session. New to IETC this year, we will be offering a one-hour poster session during the conference. This is a great opportunity to showcase something new and engage with participants in a more direct way with a less formal and less stressful presentation!
