Virtual Conference Instructions for Webinar Presenters, Moderators, Awardees, Candidates, and Board of Directors

Presenters should have received a unique zoom link that was sent to your email. As a presenter, moderator, awardee, candidate, or board of director, you will have your video and audio on and you will be able to share your presentation to the audience. You will be able to see the other panelists within the webinar space. You will also be able to see the attendees virtually raise their hand, their questions in the Q&A, and their messages in the Chat box. The sessions will be recorded.
