We realize a lot of you cannot submit your Session Notes in advance of the event due to last minute updates and changes. Therefore, we have included the option to submit your Session Notes on-site. As a speaker you are required to register at the Speaker Information Booth located in the Convention Center. As you register you will be asked to provide a diskette with your Session Notes on it. We will also be able to make a copy of your diskette if necessary. OR, you can still e-mail your session notes to snotes@DECUS.org.

Please register and submit your Session Notes at the Session Notes Booth, on-site, located next to the Speaker Information Booth, during the following hours:

Session Notes remain an integral part of the Encompass experience and are valued greatly by our attendees. Our goal is to offer Session Notes for ALL scheduled sessions. Your cooperation in submitting your notes is greatly appreciated.
