FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Q.    Do presenters have to pay the conference registration fee? 

A.    Yes, if the presenter is attending the conference or any of its events, the presenter must pay the conference registration fee. If the presenter will only present the workshop and not remain for any additional conference activities, registration is not required. However, in this case, the presenter will not receive access to other sessions on the platform.


Q.    Do I need prior State Director approval to submit a workshop proposal?

A.    Yes, in most cases.  All proposals by ESEA/ESSA Title I, Part C Migrant Education personnel or those whose time will be funded by the Title I Migrant Education Program, must be submitted to the appropriate State Director for review prior to submission to NASDME. Proposals submitted without such approval are likely to be rejected or returned to the prospective presenter to obtain such approval.


Q.   How will I present my workshop virtually?

A.     If selected, you will be given instructions on this. Most workshops will be recorded.


​​​​​​​Q.    I am a Vendor. May I submit a proposal?

A.    Workshop presentations are noncommercial forums. Attendees do not like sales pitches or product descriptions. Presenters must refrain from the use of brand names and any product endorsement and/or marketing. You may submit a proposal if you agree to follow the principles, guidelines, and procedures outlined above and on the workshop proposal form.
