Coaching for First-time Presenters

First-time presenter? Then take advantage of this valuable, optional opportunity: Schedule a meeting to review your slide deck with NSPRA Manager of Professional Development and Member Engagement Melissa McConnell and get feedback, encouragement and validation that you're on the right track with your presentation.

Ask questions, discuss the flow of the presentation, get tips on design, best practices for sharing information "after" the session, and more. This is a great way to ensure your content matches your title and description. It could also help you earn 5 out of 5 stars from your attendees!
