Or maybe you know what you want to do, but you're nervous about something (and you're not quite sure what!) Giving talks and speaking in general can be nervewracking - but it doesn't have to be!</p> <p>Join us on Feb. 15th for an evening of fun, functionality, and friendship! We're going to help you get ready to create an idea, submit a proposal to a conference CFP, and prep for your talk! This workshop is designed to help you prepare for ACT-W (Advancing the Careers of Technical Women) and the CFP that is due March 1st, but you can come even if you aren't interested in submitting a talk to ACT-W. We'll discuss the ins and outs of CFPs, how to prepare, how to pitch yourself, and how to avoid self-doubt.</p> <p>We look forward to meeting you!</p> <p>This workshop is taught by Laura Davis of Clarity Innovations and Kristen Gallagher of Edify. Both Laura and Kristen are organizers of ACT-W 2017.</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/say-something-how-to-submit-talks-to-conferences-tickets-31735701337">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
