Proposal Submission Criteria
Subject
Sessions must be educational, informative and represent all practice levels. Please reference the Session Proposals Criteria the planning committee has prepared for the 2025 conferences.
In-person or Virtual?
You can choose to present at the in-person meeting, virtual meeting or both! In-person sessions can be 60 minutes, 75 minutes, or a 2-hour workshop. All sessions for the virtual meeting will be 60 minutes.
New this year – the ImpACT Planning Committee is adding the interactive workshops as an option for session length. These workshops will be scheduled for 2-hours, and the expectation is that all workshops are highly engaging providing the audience with ample hands-on experience. The 2-hour workshops should not be viewed as an extended lecture or panel.
The ImpACT Planning Committee also encourages submissions that can be viewed as a series of two sessions. Think of these sessions as two 60-minute sessions that follow a part one and part two structure. The series must reflect a theme or a unified set of topics. If you are interested in a two-part series submission, please submit two proposals and clearly list part one and part two in the titles. The session length for each proposal should be listed as 60-minutes.
Presenters
Include preferred presenter names in your proposal submission. Presenters should represent a breadth of concepts and perspectives, as well as a variety of companies (minimum two). Sessions should not be considered a forum for any individual company or product. Submissions with diverse presenters identified will be prioritized during the review process. Presenter recruitment will begin immediately after sessions are approved.
Deadline
Session proposals must be submitted by May 12, 2025, to be considered for the 2025 SOA ImpACT Conferences. Please complete the submission form in its entirety.
Note: Submitting a proposal does not guarantee selection as a session for the ImpACT programs. You will be notified the week of June 23, 2025, if your proposal has been selected as is, or it may be combined with similar/related proposal(s). The planning committee reserves the right to decline any proposal if it is determined the topic is not a fit for this year’s program.
