iLandscape Calls for Educational Presentations

The iLandscape Education Committee is accepting presentation summary submissions to be considered for the 2016 iLandscape: Illinois + Wisconsin Landscape Show. All submissions, received by May 31, 2015, will be reviewed and considered for this comprehensive educational program. The 2015 educational program drew an astonishing 1300 attendees.

Please note:

• Presentations that market specific products and services will not be accepted, nor are presentations of this nature acceptable at iLandscape 2016. There are product demonstrations for this purpose.
• If accepted, expect to provide presentation materials to be distributed to all attendees prior to iLandscape 2016.
• All accepted presenters are given a complimentary education pass to iLandscape. Travel reimbursement and honoraria are considered on a case by case basis.
• Submission of a presentation summary does not guarantee acceptance. The education committee has the final say on all submitted material.
