CONFERENCE FAQ<br />
Am I allowed to attend a session I didn’t register for in advance<br />
We encourage you to choose your sessions in advance, using the online schedule builder at<br />
conference2012.ewb.ca! This tool helps match sessions to your profile, creating a personalized<br />
schedule for your time at conference. It also provides prep material for each session you choose. To<br />
help conference run smoothly for all delegates, we recommend that you avoid changing your<br />
schedule day-of.<br />
Do I have to stay with my chapter during sessions and keynotes<br />
No, we encourage everyone to engage with delegates from other chapters!<br />
T<strong>here</strong> are two sessions I’d like to attend that are happening at the same time.<br />
How do I choose<br />
You can ask your chapter, or other delegates, for help! If you and another delegate each go to one<br />
session, you can share the session highlights with each other afterwards. You can also prepare<br />
questions in advance that your friend can ask during the other session.<br />

Announcements will be communicated through text message, posters, and our online<br />
communications media. (http://conference2012.ewb.ca)<br />
