HCI 2006 requires a number of enthusiastic and motivated student volunteers
to help with the day-to-day running of the conference.
Who can apply
-------------
Application is open to any student researching in either HCI or in a
HCI-related field.
Duties and benefits
-------------------
Volunteers will be expected to be present from the afternoon of Sunday 10th
to Friday 15th September, and whilst on duty to wear the HCI 2006 T-shirts
provided to allow for easy identification. Volunteers will have a range of
duties, including, but not limited to: preparing the conference bags,
assisting the reception desk, providing AV support prior and during
sessions, directing attendees, and contributing to the overall smooth
running of the conference.
In return for their assistance, student volunteers will pay no attendance
fee, will receive electronic copies of the proceedings, and be able to
attend sessions when not on duty. Please note that HCI2006 is unable to pay
travel expenses.
It must be emphasised that while every effort will be made to allow student
volunteers to attend sessions of interest to them, their primary
responsibility will be to the smooth running of the conference and as such
they may be needed elsewhere.
