CONFERENCE ETIQUETTE
|
|
|
To make the conference experience an enjoyable event for all attendees, please keep the following in mind:
- As a courtesy to speakers and other attendees, please refrain from the use of pagers or cell phones during presentations. Please also keep in mind that conference participants are there to learn. In consideration of all attendees, please turn your pager or cell phone to vibrate or off while in meetings.
- In order to accommodate environmental sensitivities of some of our attendees, please do not wear scented products while attending the conference, especially the sessions. Please also consider that moderation and restraint in the use of perfume, cologne or scented products in session and events greatly enhances the ability of individuals who suffer from chemical sensitivities such as MCS, to fully participate in this valuable educational forum.
- To maintain and demonstrate professionalism within our industry, conference attire is business casual.
- Because it is difficult to adjust meeting room temperatures to suit individual preferences, please bring a sweater/jacket or wear layered clothing to ensure your comfort.
