Speaker benefits and obligations

Submissions will be reviewed to ensure that speakers and topics align with PACC’s standards of excellence, allowing us to once again deliver a world-class program that is informative, engaging, and offers relevant content that provides genuine value for delegates and sponsors alike.

  • Speakers must be available to present on any day of the conference.
  • Plenary and breakout sessions are generally 90 minutes long; some are 120 minutes long. Workshops are 3 hours long.
  • Speakers will be required to agree to meet deadlines for providing session descriptions, audiovisual requirements, and presentation materials. Failure to meet deadlines could result in disqualification.
  • Speakers must commit to maintaining an educational or professional development focus and to avoid sales messages and marketing presentations.
  • Speakers who incorporate a sales theme or message and/or receive low audience evaluations will not be invited to present at future PACC events.
  • PACC offers fresh and timely programming at its learning events, so being approved as a speaker at a PACC event does not imply that the speaker will be invited to speak at future events.
  • Congress registration fees are waived for speakers.
  • Speakers’ colleagues may register at reduced rates.
By agreeing to speak at the Congress, speakers give PACC the right and option to post, publish, re-distribute (online and offline) soft and/or hard copies of their presentation material including slides, designs, detailed papers, photos and recorded video, with attribution but no monetary or other tangible compensation.
