Review Criteria

Please review the complete Call for Presentations, including the strand descriptions and session formats, before submitting a proposal.

We highly recommend that you prepare and save the following information in a word-processing document before you enter it into the system. The submission system will time out after ~30 minutes, and you will lose anything you’ve entered unless you have completed the submission process. You will be asked to provide the following information:

  • Strand choice
  • 10-word title (in uppercase)
  • 40-word summary
  • 250-word description (used for reviewing the presentation proposal)
  • 2nd and 3rd choice of strand
  • 2nd and 3rd choice for presentation format
  • Up to 2 threads (if applicable)
  • Specific elements of the NAAEE Guidelines for Excellence and/or goals of the NAAEE Strategic Plan (if applicable)

NOTE: The title and summary will appear in the online and printed program if your presentation is accepted and scheduled. This is your "marketing piece" that tells the audience why they should attend YOUR presentation instead of something else scheduled at the same time. Make it enticing and exciting!

When ready to submit, login with your email address and password at www.naaee.net/user. If you do not  have a profile in the database (i.e., you have not submitted a proposal in recent years, you have not attended a conference in recent years, you are not a member of NAAEE, etc.), please create an account here www.naaee.net/user/register.

Once logged in, you will be back on the NAAEE home page. Place your mouse over the word “Conference” in the menu to the right of the NAAEE logo. A drop-down menu will appear with the "Proposals" link as an option. Click on that link to go to the conference program website, to submit or edit your proposal.
 

In the presentation submissions system, be sure to hit the “Accept and Continue” button on every page until you see a confirmation page. You will receive a confirmation email at the address in your profile when your proposal submission is successful.
 

After you have submitted the proposal, you will be able to edit any of the information between your submission date and March 16. If your proposal is accepted and scheduled, you will be able to edit titles/descriptions and add presenters again after you receive your acceptance notice.

Volunteer to be a Proposal Reviewer
NAAEE typically receives 400-500 presentation proposals, so we need many reviewers.
Please consider volunteering to be a reviewer; your efforts are critical to the success of the conference and Research Symposium. You are not required to be a member of NAAEE to volunteer. Follow the same directions for logging into the conference proposal system, and look for the link to volunteer as a reviewer on the main page.
