[MCN-L] REMINDER: AAM proposals due today - Remember to hit the SUBMIT button!!!

2013-08-26 Thread Perian
Hi everyone:

Just a quick reminder to everyone submitting AAM proposals. Please make 
sure you've actually submitted the proposal by selecting the red 
Complete and Submit button on the bottom right of your proposal. There 
are a lot of sessions that have been submitted but not finalized, and 
these will be discarded if they're not finalized! I wouldn't want 
anyone's hard work to go to waste for lack of hitting a button.

Also, the last time for submitting proposals is at 11:59 PM EST tonight. 
After that, the system will be locked down. So please go in and check to 
make sure your presenter bios are in, your learning outcomes are clear, 
and that dang little red button is clicked.

Thanks!
