All student presentations that request to be judged will be assessed and eligible for CERF Student Presentation Awards. Judges will be CERF 2017 attendees who have volunteered to assess student presentations within their field of expertise.

Consider these Judging Criteria as you prepare your presentations.

The awards ceremony will be held at the Close-Out Party on the evening of Thursday, November 9. Judging forms (either paper or electronic) with written feedback will be made available to presenters after the conference. Contact Amber Hardison or Jessie Jarvis for more information.
