Conference Details

Breakout Presenters

Presenter Application
Downloadable Content
Breakout speakers are the backbone of the conference.  OACE typically offers 5-10 options per breakout, which vary in length from 45 minutes to 90 minutes.  Breakouts are typically presented in English OR Spanish.  If a bi-lingual presentation is desired, presenters are encouraged to do TWO different breakouts and focus on one language at a time, as this optimizes the learning experience for participants.   Attendees may be Oregon-based* educators OR they may be parents.  During sign-up, presenters may indicate which audience, duration, language, etc. their presentation is most suited for.
The fees for the first two presenters who are attending the full conference will be waived.  Additional presenters are charged per person and help cover the cost for them to attend.  Please read Important Information below for details.

Symposia & Speakers

Presenter Application
Downloadable Content
The Symposium is a popular option each year.  OACE plans for 3-4 symposium options each year.  Symposia are held on Thursday and typically have 40-60 attendees each.  Symposium Presenters typically present from 9-Noon and 1-4PM, with an hour for lunch, although half day options are available, if needed.  Since these sessions are larger than typical breakouts, they are held in the larger rooms.  Continental breakfast, coffee service and boxed lunches are provided.  We ask you to complete an application to provide us with information.  
Speakers address the entire conference during plenary or keynote addresses.  These addresses may vary in duration from 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the conference's needs, the presenters availability, and the topic complexity.  Speakers typically present in the main conference venue or auditorium and have audiences between 200-400 people.  Meals may be served during speeches, and there are typically other conference functions, like announcements, raffles, etc, that bookend the speech.
Typically content is delivered in English and Spanish translation is made available via headset.  The audience includes mostly Oregon-based* educators, including teachers, administrators, etc.

Registration fee is waived for Symposium Presenters and Speakers.  Please read Important Information below for details.
