Apply These Tips for a Stronger Proposal
The Planning Committee recently hosted an office hour session to help colleagues fine-tune their ideas into strong proposal submissions. Experienced speakers shared guidance on writing a proposal that stands out to reviewers and attendees.
Here are just a few of the main takeaways:
- Write for readers at all skill levels so your topic is clear and understandable to anyone.
- Create a catchy title that grabs attention and conveys what your session is about.
- Focus your abstract on the value to attendees through how and why your session will benefit them.
