Guidelines For Presentation
How to build a deck that carries your argument.
- Consider the sequence and relevancy of your slides — each slide should lead smoothly to the next.
- Use graphs and charts to illustrate your main points. These visuals help the audience clearly understand the content.
- Keep it simple. Avoid overly fancy graphs, too much data, flash animations, GIFs, or bright distracting colors. The audience will focus on the effects, not your message.
- Use high-contrast, easy-to-read fonts common to most computers. Avoid ALL CAPS, italics, and unnecessary styling. Minimum recommended font size: 30 pt.
Follow the 6-6-6 Rule

How a Poster Session Works
What is expected of you on the day.
As a poster presenter, you can deliver your presentation effectively to an audience in the form of a poster.
There is no formal oral presentation in a poster session; instead, each author is assigned a display area on which diagrams, graphics, data, pictures/photos, and a small amount of text are presented.
The poster should be self-explanatory, but the author should be available at certain times, such as refreshment breaks and during the time devoted to the poster session, to interact with viewers and answer questions.
Poster Presentation Guidelines
Poster Submission
- Hand over the poster to the organizing committee at the registration table.
Poster Viewing & Evaluation
- A time slot will be allocated for poster viewing in the conference program.
- Please ensure you stand by your poster for discussions and questions.
- Presenters should explain their material, answer questions, exchange contact information, and discuss the subject matter with visitors.
Time limit
Keep your presentation within the 8–10 minute timeframe.
Format
Virtual Presentation
For your convenience, we offer virtual presentations if you are unable to attend the conference in person but still need your work to be presented and published. There are two different types of virtual presentations.
Live Video Presentation
Present live over video link to the session audience in real time.
PowerPoint Virtual Presentation

Guidelines For Presentation
Live Video Presentation
Setting up so you come across well on camera.
- Select the ideal background, then optimise the lighting.
- Use an Ethernet connection for stable internet.
- Use the same computer & internet for practice and presentation.
- Check your webcam and position it so your face, neck, and shoulders are visible.
- Ensure your voice is clearly audible; external microphones work better.
- Be yourself and present with confidence — audiences connect with authenticity.
PowerPoint Virtual Presentation
Preparing a deck that stands on its own.
- Perform a test run before the presentation day.
- Review slides with a trusted advisor before submitting.
- Don’t read directly from the slides while presenting.
- Use props or demonstrations to stay within the allotted time.
- Practice your presentation to refine your delivery.
Time limit
