Hi! Yes, it's that time of the year, again. And the sooner we get all of our sessions for the upcoming SHARE populated with Session Chairs, the sooner I can stop sending out this email with the request for them :)
If you already know that you are going to Providence, and whether you have experience Chairing sessions or not, we'd love to have you jump on-board and help out the speakers by chairing their sessions. If you've never done this before, and aren't sure, please feel free to email me with any questions you have. It's really quite simple. If you are ready to sign up, just email me the session IDs that you want to pick up. It's that easy. Thanks!
