Get your conference abstracts in: Closing this Friday











Just a friendly nudge…


This Friday (24 February) is the deadline to submit abstracts (i.e. to run a 45 min workshop) for the 2012 Australian Community Engagement & Fire Awareness Conference.

We know from previous years’ feedback that attendees particularly enjoy hearing from others within the service. If you or a member you know are considering a submission feel free to contact me for more information or to bounce ideas around.

Below are some FAQs that have arisen throughout the process of collecting abstracts.
FAQs:

• Abstracts are an application to present a 45 minute workshop session at the conference. A number of sessions run simultaneously throughout the conference.

• Abstract submissions will be considered for keynote speakers.

• Submissions are reviewed and ranked by a Working Party comprised of NSW RFS members representing all four Regions.

• It is acceptable to share presenting duties with another NSW RFS member, however, we ask you to indicate this somewhere within your submission.

• If you have particular AV/IT or room set up requirements, please include this information in your submission.

• The conference program will be released after abstracts are assessed and speakers confirmed.

• You do not have to attach your presentation (PowerPoint or handouts) with your application.


If you have any questions don’t hesitate to get in touch – community.engagement@rfs.nsw.gov.au or 02 8741 5416.
