At the IAI’s 93rd International Educational Conference, individuals will have an opportunity to participate in the annual Poster Presentations. There will be Regular and Student divisions. The Student division is sponsored by Foray and there will be scholarship prizes awarded.

Topics in a field of identifications, crime scene search, or items of historical importance to identification are appropriate. Presenters bring captions, graphs, drawings, models, or other exhibits to assist in explaining/demonstrating a process, technique, idea, unusual case, or item of historical interest.

The well-designed poster should inform the observer as to the basics of the subject matter, as well as any conclusions, therefore freeing the presenter to focus on discussion of essential elements of the work. The presenter does not give any formal lecture – but stands by his/her display as the observers pass and at that time reviews the particulars of the presentation with those individuals.

Audio/video equipment (VCRs, televisions, computers, etc.) and other electrical components will not be provided for the poster presentations. A 4’ X 8’ board will be provided for display of each presentation.

It is the responsibility of the presenter to insure his/her poster is picked up at the conclusion of the presentation.

The registration deadline is July 31, 2008.

Individuals interested in presenting a poster exhibit may submit a presentation/contest registration form or send it in electronically.
