Presentation Teams

Speakers from a company or business, including Affiliate members, must work with at least one co-presenter from a college, university, or other educational institution.

Sessions can be led by up to four presenters, although on average two speakers make up a presentation team.


Update Your Profile

We will be directing the public to presenter profiles on the URMIAnetwork. Please ask URMIA members who are potential presenters to update their profiles and set privacy settings to allow the public to view their photo and biography.

Flash Sessions

Flash sessions will be scheduled again this year. A flash session allows for a narrowly focused deep dive on a single subject and allows attendees the opportunity to gather a lot of information in a short time span. These are limited to one presenter, and our affiliate members may participate in this session type with no institutional partner.


Core Competencies for Risk Managers

The education team strives to align URMIA programming with our Core Competencies for Risk Managers. Members can review this publication in the URMIA Library. If you do not have access to this information, add an URMIA member to your presentation team.
