RE: Call for presentations due March 11

[Guest guest]

Good Afternoon ,

Hope this email finds you doing well. As always we remain interested in

presenting the Heart/Lung Lab. We have developed many new

demonstrations for this year. When the conference moved back to Austin

we lost our donor for the organs and with all city and school budgets

being cut we have lost those sponsors as well. Our true cost for the

class without any donor support is about $5000.00. Of course we do not

expect DSHS to fund this entirely. We would need to request $2000.00

We do not need any AV equipment, we can bring our own.

We are open to any discussion regarding moving the class to the

pre-conference or having a $ 10. fee per student in the 2 hour

sessions.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kris

Call for presentations for Texas EMS Conference due March 11

Want to present a workshop at Texas EMS Conference 2011? Texas EMS

Conference 2011 is accepting submissions to present until March 11. The

conference takes place November 20-23 in Austin. Preconference classes

are November 19 and 20.

Here's the link:

http://www.dshs.state.tx.us/emstraumasystems/11CallForPresentations.shtm

Texas EMS Conference is looking for a broad range of presentations and

workshops for this year's conference. We're particularly interested in

workshops with a clinical content, or those that offer a fresh take on a

subject. We try to have each category of continuing education

well-represented (Content areas are listed at

www.dshs.state.tx.us/emstraumasystems/ceareas.shtm).

Anyone interested in presenting at Texas EMS Conference 2011 must

complete a Call for Presentations form and submit it electronically, on

the official conference submission forms, by March 11, 2011. A volunteer

committee will choose workshops based on content and CE category.

This year, in order to save money on audio-visual equipment and keep our

registration costs the same, we are going to have fewer simultaneous

tracks so there will be fewer presentations chosen. Please take time to

make your Call for Presentation the best you can make it.

Speakers whose presentations are accepted will be notified via email of

acceptance. Traditionally, the notices announcing our decisions for

selection are sent out by email around mid-June. Assignment of

dates/times usually occurs in September. Handouts are due electronically

to by October 14 and will be posted on the conference website several

weeks before the conference.

Call or write if you have questions!
