Workshops

WORKSHOPS are at least 3 hours in length and scheduled at the beginning or end of the annual conference on either Wednesday or Saturday. All workshops must be eligible for approval as a BCBA/BCaBA continuing education event.

Note:

Presenters receive one-half of each registration fee collected (after the CEU fee is deducted).

Papers

PAPERS are oral presentations of a single paper presented in 50 or 80-minute durations. Any author intending to speak must be marked as a presenting author.

Paper Sessions

PAPER SESSIONS are 25-minute paper presentations grouped together to form 50- or 80-minute paper sessions around similar topics. A chair will be assigned by the Program Committee.

Symposia

SYMPOSIA consist of several speakers addressing a very similar topic. This differs from a paper session in that it features a Discussant—a person prominent in the field who is not one of the presenters.

Panel Discussions

PANEL DISCUSSIONS bring together several individuals with similar expertise to discuss topics of concern. Panels are scheduled for 50- or 80-minutes.

Posters

POSTERS are visual presentations of data-based information. Posters should fit a 3' x 4' area. Note: Posters are not eligible for CE credits.

Ignite

IGNITE is a fast-paced session where presenters share passions in 5 minutes using 20 slides that auto-advance every 15 seconds.

Meetings & Special Events

MEETINGS and SPECIAL EVENTS are for items needing conference space but not fitting other categories. Not eligible for CE credits.
