The following selection criteria is used to determine which programs are selected:

  • Relevance of topic and ability to clearly accomplish learning objectives in an online format. Preference given for sessions that provide professional development hours (PDHs).
  • Presenter and content add significant contributions to the professional dialogue and development of attendees’ skills.

  • Presenter engages with and includes experts from the engineering community or leaders at engineering firms in the session as panelists, as appropriate.
  • Presenter is a member of ACEC or a state member organization, as appropriate.
  • All proposals must be submitted at least (3) months in advance of the requested program date.
  • All presentations should run 60 or 90 minutes in length, but presenters are welcome to submit proposals for a multi-series program.
