As part of ASSP’s annual Safety 2027 Conference & Expo, Lecture Sessions are traditional, instructor-led sessions designed to share knowledge and insights with a broad audience. Presenters deliver structured content supported by a PowerPoint presentation. Rooms are arranged in theater-style to accommodate forward-facing learning. Ideal for research findings, case studies, and best practice overviews.
Speaker proposals are evaluated objectively with emphasis on the following criteria listed in order of significance:
- Degree to which the proposed session meets the conference/program objectives
- Desirability of the topic
- Speaker's presentation skills and experience
Proposals to present must contain and convey sufficient detail to allow ASSP's Conference Planning Committee to understand how the proposed session will contribute to the conference objectives.
Selection is competitive, so you must submit a compelling and complete proposal. No more than two proposals from one speaker will be considered. Please complete a separate application for each proposal. Incomplete submissions will not be considered. Call for Presenters Guidelines
