FAQ
How do I register using my complimentary speaker code?
You should have received a email from 3dcic@action-engineering.com containing your individual speaker code. Register here.
How long are the presentations?
Unless we have discussed other arrangements with you, most presentations are scheduled for 30 minutes. At the end of your presentation, Jennifer Herron from Action Engineering will join you on stage to moderate 5 minutes of audience questions.
What are the presentation guidelines?
- Layout: Prepare your presentation in widescreen format (16:9). Please avoid using the standard ratio (4:3).
- Text: All text should be 24 point or larger font to ensure clear readability.
- Format: Microsoft PowerPoint is strongly encouraged.
- Graphics: You are free to use your own PowerPoint template. We do not have a prescribed 3D CIC slide design template, though you may use this template if desired.
- Video & Audio: Please let us know in advance if your presentation includes video and/or audio. We will advise our on-site tech support to ensure that video and audio play correctly.
All presentations – draft, final, or revisions – can be uploaded to this shared folder. Please use the naming structure ‘LastName-CompanyName-Date’.
When should I be prepared to answer questions?
Please join the webinar at least 15 minutes before your scheduled presentation.
How should I prepare for audience questions & polling?
Our event app includes polling and Q&A features, and we have set aside time following each presentation for audience engagement.
Please submit a poll question to Action Engineering when you upload your presentation. This can be a multiple choice, open text, word cloud, or rating poll. Examples are shown in the brief video to the right.
Audience members can submit questions through the event app during your presentation. Action Engineering will moderate displaying and asking these questions after your presentation concludes. You don’t need to worry about the tech side of this – Action Engineering will handle all of it!
You’re welcome to integrate polls or questions throughout your presentation as well! This creates strong audience engagement and has led to some of our best sessions in previous years. Email us so we can have everything set up for you!
Where can I download the 3D CIC event app?
Download the 3D CIC event app for Android or iOS, or search “3D CIC” in your app store.
I have a question that wasn’t answered here.
Please email us and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
