Guidelines for Presentation Proposals

On behalf of the BUILDEX Calgary Planning Committee, outlined below are guidelines for Presentation Proposals to be reviewed by the Planning Committee for potential inclusion in the 2012 BUILDEX Calgary Conference Education Program. This is Calgary's premier conference and tradeshow for the real estate & property management, construction, and architecture & design industries to be held November 6 & 7, 2012 at the BMO Centre in Calgary.

Criteria for submissions:

1. Title (this will likely be used in promotional materials if the seminar is chosen. Consider a title that will catch an audience’s attention)
2. Presentation Synopsis: 4 – 5 sentence synopsis of the proposed presentation.
3. Learning Objectives: Identify the learning objectives to be achieved at the end of the seminar
4. Learning Devices/Tools: Indicate if a PowerPoint presentation or other alternative audiovisual learning devices will be used. (PowerPoint presentations are not mandatory but research indicates delegates prefer them)
5. Speaker name(s), photo(s), full contact information and brief biographies, including two references per speaker. (This is not mandatory for the deadline date below yet will be required once seminars have been approved)
6. Most importantly: Conference seminars will be valid towards continuing education credits for various organizations. It is imperative that seminars contain quality education focused content and are not used as an opportunity to promote services and/or products. Proposals having a promotional angle will not be considered.

If you are interested in speaking at BUILDEX Calgary 2012, please submit proposal by June 8, 2012 to Hailey Chan at. If you have any questions please call 403.290.1080 ext. 192059. We will contact only those who have provided submissions chosen for inclusion.
