ASSE does not supply handouts for speakers.  We ask that speakers do not provide handouts, as we are unable to duplicate handouts on-site.  Speakers may bring handouts at their own expense only with prior approval.  Contact Bonnie Lipinski, blipinski@asse.org, to obtain approval for handouts. ASSE does not permit material that constitutes advertising to be distributed.

Registering On-Site – You Must Also Register On-Site

Q: How Early Should I Arrive At My Session?
A: Please arrive at your session room no later than 30 minutes before your scheduled start time so you have enough time to introduce yourself to the moderator of your session and get comfortable with the audiovisual equipment you will be using. Plan to check in at Speaker Registration no later than 1 hour prior to your session.

Q: How Do I Reserve A Hotel Room For The Conference?
A: We suggest you make your hotel reservation no later than March 14, 2013 to ensure availability for your requested dates.
