Email your speaker photo
Your speaker photo, if we have it, appears with your session listing and description on the event website. Please send us a photo as soon as possible if we do not have it already.
To submit a photo or update the one we have, please email it to [email protected]. It must be:
In color
In TIFF, JPG, or PNG format

By August 4
Review Session Descriptions and Speaker Bio
Review the session description and speaker bio on the conference website. These are based on content from your proposal, but they may have been edited for length and consistency with Learning Guild standards.
Please review your session description carefully and let us know if the content is inaccurate. If you have minor edits, send them to [email protected].
Copy and paste the text from the website into a Word document.
Please use the “track changes” option when editing or indicate your edits with bold red text.
Only changes submitted to us prior to the August 4 deadline will be included at the launch of the app (though we will continue to make updates after that date).
Notes:
Please suggest minor edits only. We cannot change the basic focus or ‘takeaways’ of a session once it has been accepted and posted.
After August 20, the Learning Guild Event app for the Learning Leaders Conference will be available, and you will be able to update your own bio, job title, and company name. If you do this, please let us know so that we have up-to-date information for your session room sign and session materials.
By August 15
Pre-Conference Event materials for print are due
Pre-conference Learning Event materials for print are due.
We must receive any pre-conference event materials you wish the Learning Guild to print for participants by this date in order to make our print deadline.
Please email these materials in PDF format to [email protected].
Additional information is on the Session Materials page.
We do not link pre-conference learning materials to the app
Note: This deadline is final. If we do not receive your materials by this date, you will be responsible for making copies of your materials and for any related costs, including but not limited to copying and shipping costs.
By November 1
Concurrent sessions materials are due
While you are not required to submit session materials, we strongly encourage it.
We will post any concurrent session materials that we receive by September 2 to the event app prior to the Learning Leadership Conference. We will continue to process materials received after September 2 and link them to your session in the app, but we cannot guarantee that they will be ready prior to your session!
Session slide decks and digital resources greatly enhance the attendee experience. Attendees often request slide decks during and after the event.
Sharing materials in advance is especially helpful to anyone who might need assistive technology to review the materials or follow along in your session.
Please consider sharing a summary of key points as a handout and to aid attendees in following along during the session, especially if you cannot share your full slide deck.
Having resources and presentation material linked to your session description in the app can boost attendance at your session!
Additional information is on the Session Materials page.
Please email your session materials to [email protected].
By September 4
