Archive: Reviewing Proposals for NSTA Conference in Anaheim, September 23, 2025

Are you interested in helping NSTA reviewing proposals for the National Conference in Anaheim? Join us on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, from 7:00 PM to 8:15 PM ET, to learn the process that NSTA follows to review conference proposals. 

During this web seminar, members of the NSTA conference team will guide you through the process of reviewing and giving feedback, ensuring you have all the tools you need to provide a strong evaluation for each conference proposal.  

During this program participants will:

  • Learn about the materials provided by NSTA for conference proposal reviewers, including review criteria, rubrics, and more.
  • Tour the NSTA ‘My Account’ space and how it will be used to review the submissions allocated.
  • Discuss exemplary reviews.
  • Review next steps – what to expect after reviewing a submission.

All individuals receive a certificate of participation and 100 NSTA activity points for attending the live seminar and completing the end-of-program survey. A certificate of participation is not awarded for watching the recorded version of the program.

We invite you to register for upcoming web seminars at NSTA.
