Key information, concisely delivered
If you are an impatient learner who wants the most important facts to be delivered concisely, then Speed Learning sessions are for you. This presentation format proved popular at the 2009 Conference, and has an expanded role in the 2010 sessions. Each Speed Learning session will include two or three speakers per 75-minute session. Each speaker will have 15 to 25 minutes to present a limited number of slides, with 10 minutes allotted at the end of each presentation for Q & A. Speed Learning sessions enrich the amount of information provided in one session and deliver two or three tightly focused presentations in one fast-paced session.
