All moderators need to be in their assigned rooms at least 15 minutes before the session is scheduled to begin.

A technician will be available to cover lecture halls and rooms if there are any problems.

- Requests that people do not enter or leave any session in the middle of a presentation,
- Requests that all cell phones are turned off,
- Relates to audience the format of the presentations: 30 minutes for each presenter with 30 minutes of discussion after presentations,
- Introduces each presenter from a summary of the bios in event guide – be sure to check the pronunciation of any unfamiliar names,
- Makes sure each presenter stays within the 30-minute time frame,
- Makes sure questions are handled in an orderly and civil fashion without too much time directed to one question if other questions are waiting,
- Tries to keep discussion moving through insights noted during the presentations – is prepared to kick start discussion if needed, and
