This training was provided for advanced presenters and was conducted by Betsy Greene, one of last years national winners Henry Dorough, and Gary Zoubek, Professional Excellence Committee National Chair.


Information was provided about developing posters, how to prepare them, the scoring guide we've developed along with a Question & Answer session. Betsy has also made a video "Beginning Poster Building" that highlights the basics of preparing posters using PowerPoint.
