Welcome! Thank you for presenting at the 2022 National Leadership Forum! Here you will be able to find information regarding what is needed from you leading up to Forum, as well as tips for making your training session a success!

Please note, CADCA does not print handouts or worksheets for training sessions. Presenters may bring copies of handouts if they choose to have them available in their session rooms. Note, there is a FedEx inside the Gaylord National Harbor for your convenience.

Any materials such as handouts or worksheets can be added to the Training Session Grid on the Forum website and Forum app. Many attendees enjoy printing them before arriving to the event or saving to their mobile devices. CADCA does not reproduce handouts, worksheets or PowerPoints for attendee use.

UPLOAD YOUR HANDOUTS

Upload handouts and additional supplemental worksheets into Dropbox by COB, Friday January 7, 2022.  Please be sure to save your items with the DAY of your training session first, followed by (at minimum) the first FOUR words of your session title and then the word HANDOUT. If you have more than one handout, please add the number after the word HANDOUT.

Example: If my Wednesday session is “Prevention Basics: A Crash Course” I should save my handout(s) as WEDNESDAY_Prevention_Basics_A_Crash_HANDOUT_1. 

At the National Leadership Forum, the stellar A/V partners at Inspire will have your slides pre-loaded on the laptop that is in your training session room as long as they are received by the deadline.  

Any PowerPoint slides that are provided to us (with your permission) are reviewed and turned into password protected PDFs. They will be available on the event app and on Forum’s Training Session Grid.
