We are accepting submissions of abstracts for oral presentations, and presenters will be allotted 20-30 minutes, depending on the session, including time for questions. NYSFOLA does not endorse specific products, services, or vendors. Therefore, presentations by individuals representing corporations or projects conducted by corporations should avoid the use of trade or brand names and refer to products or services by a generic descriptor unless the relationship is clearly stated from the start.
