NAR 2008 Conference & Expo: Call for Presentations

Ever been to a NAR Conference & Expo? It’s a madhouse I tell you! Several thousands of agents, brokers, and other real estate professionals; exhibits, learning presentations and more.

The 2008 Conference & Expo will be in Orlando, FL on November 7 - 10. This year’s theme is Destination Success: Full Speed Ahead.

The NAR has put out a call for presentations for conference education sessions. At last years conference in Las Vegas, I heard session feedback ranging from “that sucked” to “absolutely brilliant!”.

Here’s your chance to submit an outline (preferably of the “absolutely brilliant!” category) and find yourself in the land of Disney World helping to educate your colleagues.

How are speakers chosen?

Proposals are reviewed by a team of industry experts with expertise in real estate topic areas.

Reviewers evaluate proposals based on six criteria:

  1. Relevance to today’s real estate professional
  2. Well-defined topic focus
  3. Practical application of material
  4. Timeliness of topic
  5. Overall program quality
  6. Speaker credentials

Have a great idea? Like to teach and speak? Whined and cried in the past about the quality and content of NAR education sessions?

Well step up or shut up! Submit a proposal! (Deadline is Feb 29)

My wheels are turning…
