Presenter Acknowledgement:

I understand my presentation should be educational and informative in nature and my participation as a speaker at the NCCAA 2024 Annual Conference is not an open forum for me to make a "sales pitch" about my company or product. Conference management and attendees may evaluate my performance. I understand that NCCAA may use my name, likeness, and presentation materials for publicizing and posting on the conference website for the benefit of NCCAA membership.
