  *   This will be a hybrid event. Think about the format for your presentation and what content you will be covering to help decide if it would be best delivered in person or virtually. Here are the session format options:

     *   Active Learning/Experiential (45 minutes)
     *   Moderated Panel (45 minutes)
     *   Presentation with Discussion (45 minutes)
     *   Skills Development/Practice (90-minute mini-tutorial)

     *   Community Building
     *   Cultural Strategies
     *   Future of IT
     *   Health IT
     *   Research, Computing & Data
     *   Security & Privacy
     *   Teaching & Learning

  *   Presentations will be selected based on relevance, subject-matter expertise of presenter(s), and the number of concurrent sessions needed. Proposals that reflect this year’s theme of Resilient, Rising & Reinspired<https://uctech.berkeley.edu/> will take priority in the selection process.
  *   If your presentation is selected, you'll have access to the registration system to be able to make edits to your title, and description, add your bio, photo, and more.
  *   Conference registration will be waived for presenters. In the case where there are multiple presenters for a single session, one conference registration will be waived for the primary presenter (listed first in the form).
