Below is an overview of expectations for both the live session experience and post-session engagement. CLC sessions are designed to be highly interactive and discussion based. Rooms will be set with multiple roundtables, with participants seated in small groups. There will be no slides or AV capabilities. A QR code will be posted outside the room, allowing participants to share their contact information if they wish to stay connected after the session.
Before the session
Moderators should collaborate with their 2–3 panelists to align on the discussion topic and approach, ensuring a cohesive and engaging experience.
During the session
As a CLC moderator, you are expected to:
After the session: Continue the connection
Following the session, moderators will receive attendee contact information collected via the QR code (for participants who opted in). To support the “Continue” portion of your session, please consider in advance how you will engage participants after the meeting
ASA will assist with the coordination and outreach for your first post-meeting communication. You and your group will be responsible for all subsequent scheduling, communication, resource sharing, and administrative tasks. Please plan your activities with this in mind.
