Creative Conference Sessions to Communicate Your Work
September 6, 2018
Facilitator: Nicole Wilkinson, Water Resources Research Institute, North Carolina State University
This webinar is aimed at meeting a key UCOWR strategic planning goal – Creating a Dynamic Conference Format. Our conference participants provide the content for the conference each year, but the UCOWR Board wants to provide you with the support to think outside the box and share your research and other topics through engaging, dynamic sessions. Are you nervous to do something besides a standard PowerPoint? Afraid you don’t have the right creative skills? Don’t think you’re dynamic enough? Put all of that aside and join us to learn about a variety of options available to you for the 2019 conference in Snow Bird, Utah.
