Presenter Resources

Webinar Week - Presenters

Thank you for being a presenter at CEUG! We appreciate your willingness to present in a totally new environment. This information is intended to help you prepare.

Not unlike a live event, there are some logistics in a virtual event. Please make sure you have made all the necessary preparations for the event.

What to Expect

  • CEUG will review the submission and contact you
  • Initial Meeting
    • Nothing formal!
    • Introductions and your webinar plans
    • We will discuss edits if any, on what will be posted to communicate the session
    • Determine the best date and time to support the different time zones and other webinars
    • Determine the length of time. Usually, it is 50-60 minutes depending on the venue
    • Discuss any webinar needs
  • CEUG will send you any questions from registrations in advance by registrants
  • Send us a copy of the completed slide deck

Dress Rehearsal

  • A day before (or so) we can have a dress rehearsal
  • Discuss internal communication if needed as we are online
  • Test uploading and sharing your PowerPoint on teams to get the most of the facilitation
  • Use the same method of login that you will use for the session
  • Discuss muting and chat options during the session to be set up

Tips

The Session

CEUG uses Microsoft Teams

  • Join 10 minutes early for set up or if any questions
  • Check setup for teams is in place as discussed 
  • Always have a presentation to guide attendees through the conversation
  • Allot 5 minutes for introductions and 5 for closing
  • Let people know if you want them to ask questions during the session or after
  • Allocate time for user discussions
  • For the closing, please mention asking attendees to fill out the survey, continue discussions in the forum and next events
