CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT (CME)
Educational Session Handouts
SMA is Going Green
We’ve got great news! This year the Scientific Assembly is paperless—meaning in an effort to become more earth-friendly, we will not distribute session handouts at the meeting.
No more bulky syllabi to have to keep up with and you have access to all handouts - not just the ones for the sessions you attend.
All registered attendees will have three ways to access session handouts before, during, and after the Assembly.
Prior to the Assembly
Approximately two (2) weeks before the meeting, visit www.sma.org/am2007 and proceed to Session Handouts. Download the materials or print them if you prefer and bring them with you to the meeting.
During the Assembly
A CD-ROM of the handouts will be provided in your registration packet. (Additional CD-ROMs may be purchased for $10.00) This can be used on your laptop or taken to the Hotel’s business center for printing (fees will apply). They can also be accessed via the SMA Annual Assembly site, www.sma.org/am2007 from your laptop or a computer in the business center.
After the Assembly
The handouts will remain on SMA’s Annual Meeting website, www.sma.org/am2007, for two months following the Assembly.
Three great reasons to support SMA’s decision to go paperless
- Syllabi will be more complete, and on-line access allows presentations and handouts to be added for your access up until the time of the meeting as received.
- Electronic copies are a more efficient way of keeping track of handouts. Paper brought back from meetings is sometimes misplaced or accidentally discarded. Electronic storage is a much better way of maintaining information for later use.
- Going Green together, we take the first step towards conserving our natural resources and making the world more environmentally friendly!
