The Call for Presentations for the ALTA® Business Strategies Conference takes place in the fall.

Who Reviews the Proposals

Educational content is developed using the proposals in combination with guidance from leadership and volunteers. All proposals are reviewed by leadership, volunteers, and staff with the intention of forming a well rounded educational program.

Hints for Successful Proposals

• Proposals are expected to be company- and product-neutral, educational in focus, and well-formed.
• Session name and description should be proposed using correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
• Complete contact information should be provided for all proposed presenters and panelists.
• Carefully consider the mix of speakers and panelists. If you are a vendor, you may want to team up with a customer to propose a case study.
• If any part of the content of your proposal is vendor or company specific, you should consider forming a panel with presenters from competitor companies. These types of panel presentations are very popular and have proven to be successful.
• Presenters can draft and refine proposals using word processing software and then block and copy the proposed session description into the form.

Suggested Content

Content areas and tracks change slightly from year to year, and all are related to title operations. Track descriptions are posted on this page and a list of suggested topics can be found in the drop-down box on the "Call for Presentations" form.

Presenter Benefits
