Instructions for Oral Presentations (Individual and Symposia)

Each session is 75 minutes long and typically includes 4 or 5 speakers.  Each speaker has 15 minutes, including time for discussion. The Q&A will be held only if there is enough time after presentations. It will be concluded live.

Important Presentation Guidelines:

• Presenters may not use their own laptops for lectures.
• All presenters must upload their presentation files (.ppt, .pptx, or .pdf) to the shared folder provided by the Organizers. We will not be accepting presentation files in Apple Keynote (.key) format. The shared folder is available HERE. Please check the program first to confirm exact date, time and room of your session and presentation.
• If your presentation is not uploaded online, you must bring it on a USB stick to the room where your session is held. Please do so during the break before your session (i.e., one session earlier), to allow enough time for testing and set up.
• Presentations should be prepared in 16:9 resolution.
• If you’d like to use a consistent format, please use our PowerPoint template and Font.
• Please name your file as follows before uploading:
  Name_Surname_Session code
  (Example: Jane_Doe_S-045)

The name is for presenting author’s name. The session code is stated in the digital program version HERE.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping us run the sessions smoothly.

We sincerely appreciate your willingness to serve as Session Chairs—your support is instrumental to the success of the event. While the role is not overly complex, it is important for ensuring that sessions proceed in an orderly and timely manner. The primary responsibility is to manage time effectively. Below, we outline the key responsibilities and general guidelines for your reference:

Opening the Session

• Begin with a brief introduction of the session topic.
• Introduce each speaker briefly by name and presentation title.
  (You are welcome to add more background if you wish, but please note that we do not provide individual bios/CVs.)

Time Management

• Each session is 75 minutes and typically includes 4–5 speakers. Each speaker has 15 minutes, including time for discussion. 
• Please ensure that no presentation or the overall session exceeds the allocated time.

Q&A Moderation

• Q&A will take place only if time allows, at the end of the session.
• If time permits, please moderate the Q&A and facilitate audience engagement.
• If there are less presentations in the session than 5, you can use the remaining time for discussion. 

Technical Support

• A technical operator will be present in each hall.
• Volunteers will also be available to assist you if needed.

Reporting Changes

• • Any changes or presenter absences must be reported to the ICEP Conference Secretariat by email: info@icep2025.com or reported to the team member at the Registration Desk onsite.

Thank you again for your valuable contribution to the conference. Your support in guiding the session ensures a rewarding experience for all attendees.

To submit an abstract of up to 250 words for an oral or poster presentation, create an account using the online abstract submission form available here. The symposium submission form is separate and can be accessed here. Notifications of acceptance or rejection will be sent by March 1, 2025. Following this date, all presenting authors will need to complete their registration and payment for the conference.

Please note: the registration to the submission platform is not a registration to the Conference. To register to ICEP 2025, please go to this page. Each presenting author needs to register independently for the conference.

The proposed structure of the empirical abstracts is as follows: Introduction, Objectives, Materials & Methods, Results, and Conclusions. Up to five keywords are recommended to summarize the abstract.

Submitted abstracts should be based on collected data. However, abstracts rooted in theoretical frameworks with data collection planned after the submission deadline will also be considered. If this applies, please ensure the feasibility of your timeline. Clearly indicate the sampling method, expected sample size, research methods, data collection instruments, and data analysis approach. 

SYMPOSIUM SUBMISSION

Full symposium, containing all abstracts is submitted by the Symposium Organizer (Symposium title, description, topic and all abstracts of the Symposium).

Symposium Organizer provides all personal details and data about each individual abstract.

A paper symposium is a cohesive cluster of research presentations and theoretical perspectives focused on a specific topic that emphasizes conceptual issues and an integration of findings with representation from multiple institutions and preferably geographical locations. It includes 4-5 individual abstracts on the same topic. 

Please note that abstracts included in a symposium do not need to be submitted individually by their authors.
