All presentations should be cleared for public dissemination. Presentations should be emailed to the Committee at NLIT2012@inl.gov by Friday, May 18, 2012.
Final Presentations must be provided to the NLIT Society by May 18th.
Each presentation should be 45 minutes in length (30 minutes to present plus 15 minutes for questions) with an additional 15 minutes to move between sessions. All selected presenters, please prepare and test your presentation on a system with Windows PowerPoint 2010.
Your presentation will be loaded onto the computer located in the room where you will be giving your presentation. A Windows computer with PowerPoint 2010, projector and screen will be in each room. If you need other equipment or support, please notify the committee at NLIT2012@inl.gov PRIOR to May 18, 2012. If you wish to use your own computer for your presentation, you will need a standard VGA connection. The room coordinator can assist with connecting your computer, but with only fifteen minutes between sessions, you will need to move quickly. As a backup please bring your presentation on a CD, DVD or thumb drive (media will be scanned for viruses/malware).
