The Summit education program is built by the Conference Committee. The committee is responsible for managing the Call for Proposals, reviewing all proposals, prioritizing the submissions in each topic area, and balancing the program across the topic areas to offer a comprehensive program for technical communicators of all experience levels and areas of interest. This committee also identifies the keynote speaker and several industry leaders to flesh out the program with important topics. In addition, the track managers work with proposal reviewers to provide a wide perspective on topics of interest. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Conference Committee for more information.
