Factors Affecting Selection An important factor for the proposals team is balance. – Too many proposals on the same topic cannot all be accepted Proposals targeting certain demographics have a good chance of being selected. – There is a lack of good presentation content at the primary and secondary school level Well-written proposal summaries have a better chance of being accepted than poorly written ones Proposals by duos, groups, and teams of colleagues may take priority over those of showcasing only one person.

Factors Disqualifying a Proposal It promotes commercial interests. It doesn’t conform to the proposal guidelines. It is not received before the deadline. The same proposal is submitted to more than one Interest Section (IS) or more than once under different titles. The same proposal is submitted every year under different titles, and conference! Being a no-show at a prior conference.
