Pre-conference coaching sessions

Why pre-conference coaching is beneficial

Learn the basics

Participants will understand how to structure their 5‑minute presentations and posters. Coaching teaches participants how to highlight key points in their work, making it easier for the audience to follow and remember.

Improve presentation skills

During the clinics, participants can rehearse, ask questions, and receive constructive feedback from coaches and peers, helping them refine their presentations. The sessions help participants practice their verbal and non-verbal communication, making them more confident when presenting their ideas.

Design better posters and videos

Participants will learn how to create visually appealing and clear posters or videos that summarize their research effectively and grab attention.

Boost confidence

The rehearsal prepares participants to present with confidence and clarity, setting them up for success at the conference and beyond.
