Your session could be selected as a half-day pre-conference workshop session or a 90?minute breakout session. A majority of submissions will be selected for 90?minute breakout sessions.
The Congress aims to provide a novel learning experience in which delegates take an active and participatory role. Each session should include an interactive discussion of the topic, practical tools/takeaways, and at least 45 minutes of open discussion/Q&A with case studies and hands-on exercises so that delegates can immediately put their newly acquired knowledge to use for the benefit of their organizations and their careers.
