Presentation Session Details
No UPA conference presentations, papers or other sessions may demonstrate or publicize a commercially available product.

Presentation titles may not include product or company names. Presenters should refrain from any product endorsements.

If you have questions about this policy, please contact the conference co-chairs.

Panel Session Details
Panels may be conducted in several ways, such as comparative, analytic, or historic. UPA recommends limiting panels to four members to allow ample time for discussion. Sessions are 90 minutes of which 30 to 45 minutes must involve audience interaction.

Presentation & Panel expectations

• The UPA expects all presentation sessions to include substantial time for audience participation.
• Allow at least one-third to one-half of the time for discussion, exercises, or hands-on experience.
