Instructions for Submitting Abstracts

Please complete the Abstract Submission form on the ACWWA website by February 24th, 2023.

Also, please indicate if the presenter is a first-time Young Professional participant at the ACWWA section conference and would like to be considered for the Fresh Ideas program developed through AWWA’s Manufacturers / Associates Council and the Young Professionals Committee. The top presentation selected from this group of presenters will be allowed to compete in the Fresh Ideas poster competition at the AWWA Annual Conference and Exposition (ACE 2024) in Anaheim, CA, representing the Young Professionals of ACWWA. Along with complimentary conference registration provided by the ACE 2024 organizing committee, ACWWA will provide the winner with a stipend to assist with travel costs to the conference.

Selection Criteria

Submissions will be reviewed based on the significance of the work/content to a broad audience, originality of the work, new concepts, improvements or new data, technical content, the status of the completeness of the work, and the relevance to the theme of the conference, if applicable. Case studies on new technologies and industry presentations that are innovative/educational are encouraged. However, submissions that appear to be marketing material for a particular product or company will not be accepted.

Authors will be notified of the selection of their abstracts for presentation by the end of July 2023.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
 
Can I complete the course at my own pace?

Yes, for the majority of the time you set the pace. You decide when you want to view the presentations and complete the course work. However, every course has an end date and you are expected to have competed all reading and assignments by the time the course closes. If you do not complete the course work on-time, you will not be eligible to receive CEU credits.
