Off-Site Coordinators

This handout will help you keep track of things to do prior to the conference and on the day of the conference. Use it as a reference guide. It also includes helpful links and contact information for video/audio webstream support. This is for site coordinators only.

Use the Pre-Broadcast Discussion handout to discuss with participants how they can interact virtually with CASCW during the conference. Each participant should have the Join our Online Discussion handout which explains how we use social media to interact virtually.

Use this form to have individuals sign in. This form will be mailed back to CASCW.

This is the Site Coordinator version of the Participant Discussion Guide (see next toggle). Use this guide to help participants break out into small groups to discuss the conference. Participants will use their own forms to record responses, so you do not need to record responses here. This is for site coordinators only.
