Hands-on sessions are a central focus of NMC conferences and attendees will have the opportunity to learn a wide range of new skills and software in these special sessions. Seating for hands-on sessions is limited and as in the past, admittance requires pre-registration and a ticket.

Please note that you should register for the hands-on session tickets now! We have changed the structure of issuing tickets and the early bird gets the worm again this year!

Guidelines for Submitting Your Proposal

  • Proposal Submission. All proposals must be submitted through the online proposal system.  (Sorry, no exceptions.)  The main presenter and each co-presenter must have an account on the NMC website in order to complete the proposal.  Presenters who do not yet have an account should go to http://www.nmc.org/user/register and create an account before starting the proposal submission process.
  • Session Title. If your proposal is accepted, the title of the presentation will affect whether or not people elect to attend. Please choose a title that accurately describes your presentation. Use no more than eight words. NMC standardizes on, as an example, 'The Use of Title Case for Session Titles' -- please capitalize major words.
