*Presentation OpportunitiesCHART Regional Training Forums (RTFs) are local meetings organized by volunteers. As grass roots meetings, volunteers are allowed to select host locations and speakers and can choose from the CHART silver, gold and platinum partners to host or present at these meetings.
CHART has a limited number of presentation opportunities at our semi-annual conferences, including breakouts, workshops and CHART Talks. In addition, we offer 12 or more free webinars per year. Platinum, gold and silver partner are eligible to submit speaking proposals for these events and will be given priority to present when they have informative non-commercial content for the membership and attendees and we strive to give each partner that has good content the opportunity to present at least once every other year.
