Speaker Notice #4 – Handout Instructions

The site for uploading session handouts is now open. Over 80% of the 2011 Conference survey respondents rated handouts as an important part of their overall Conference experience. We encourage you to provide handouts before conference to allow attendees time to review them as they build their conference itinerary. We strongly encourage you to upload your handouts by April 11. 

Poster presenters are not expected to provide handouts, but the option is available.

Guidelines:

  • Only one handout file per session is allowed
  • Only PDF files are accepted
  • File size should not exceed 5mb (Many factors contribute to file size such as size of images used, formatting, embedded media files).
  • If you are providing your PowerPoint slides as the handout, please save them with at least three slides per page when converting the file to PDF format. This reduces the number of printed pages.

Watch the instructional video here or follow the instructions below to begin uploading your handout.

Instructions for uploading your file:

  • Logon to the OASIS site using the same login and password used during the submission process. For password assistance, click here.
  • Under General Proposal or Research Proposal, select the session title
  • Select Add a File
  • On the next screen, enter a short description of the file
  • Select PDF as the file type
  • Select the file to upload
  • Click Save & Continue
  • File upload is complete and will be available for download by attendees

You may return to the OASIS site at any time to upload a newer version of your handout by logging back into OASIS.

If you do not have the capability to convert files to PDF format, please send your file to conference@aota.org with the following Subject Line:  {Your Session #} – pdf file conversion. We will convert your file and send it back to you in PDF format for you to upload.

Please send an email to conference@aota.org if you need assistance.
