Program Committee's Presentation Record Policy

 3.2 AIChE Presentation Record Policy

Speakers at AIChE spring and annual meetings (and other appropriate venues) are requested to

submit a “presentation record” to AIChE by the meeting-specific submission deadline(s). This

deadline (typically one to two months before the meeting) is established and published for each

specific meeting. This requirement is established to serve the needs of meeting attendees, improve

the quality of presentations, and to enable AIChE to publish the presentations/papers of the

meeting (e.g., a CD available at the meeting and from AIChE after the meeting).

The “presentation record” should not be confused with the Proposal-to-Present (PTP) form (with

abstract) that all prospective presenters are required to enter on the web earlier to initiate a request

for acceptance of a presentation at the meeting.

Each programming group (or area) is required to adopt specific criteria to satisfy this requirement

for presentation records in its sponsored or cosponsored sessions. Minimum requirements for this

presentation record are an extended abstract including an introduction, results and discussion

(may be augmented with figures and tables, visual aids, poster panels), and references. For a given

group, formal full-length manuscripts may be preferred for the presentation record.

Each programming Group or Area is responsible for disseminating their specific presentation

record requirements to session chairs and ensuring their understanding of this requirement. Authors

will be also advised on the specifics of the submission process, such as e-mail or hardcopy

submission options and deadlines. Authors are advised to confirm any special format requirements

with their session chairs well in advance of the presentation record submission deadline.
