Course Materials Guidelines

  • Please let us know if you intend for your submitted PowerPoint/Slide Deck to be used as your course materials (handouts for attendees).
  • Course materials are provided by the Course Director to highlight the main points of the talk and to clearly underscore the take home message of the session.

Course Presentation

  1. The Course Director is responsible for reaching out to faculty members and coordinating the presentation(s) and course materials.
  2. Course Directors must provide a course agenda in both the course materials and the final course presentation, which includes the order of presentations.
  3. Course Directors must identify for AUA staff any presentations, which may contain discussion of new or evolving topics that are not, or not yet, based on current science, evidence and clinical reasoning. AUA Staff will work with the Course Director and faculty to ensure that both the course agenda and slide of presentation include the following disclosure to learners, "The audience is advised that this content may contain discussions of topics that are new or evolving that are not, or net yet, based on current science, evidence and clinical reasoning."
  4. You must go to the Speaker Ready Room at least 24 hours prior to your presentation. No changes can be made following this point.
  5. No presentation changes can be made in the course room. All presentations will be pushed from the Speaker Ready Room.
  6. Please arrive to the course room at least 30 minutes prior to your presentation.

Conflict of Interest Review

  • The AUA is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and complies with the ACCME Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education, which includes requirements related to disclosure of financial relationships with ineligible companies (formerly known as commercial interests). As accredited educational activities, all instructional course disclosures and content are subject to review by the AUA Conflict of Interest (COI) Work Group. The group's mission is to assist the Office of Education in the review of content to ensure the highest quality continuing medical education that is scientifically valid and free of bias or promotion. Your presentation may be selected for peer review and you will be notified if any changes are required. In deference of this review process, faculty are required to adhere deadlines related to disclosure and presentation materials submission.

Don't forget to visit the Speaker Ready Room at least 24 hours prior to the course presentation.

Please arrive to the course room at least 30 min prior to your presentation.
