Tips for Online Submission for Montreal

INDIVIDUAL SUBMITTING A PAPER, POSTER, OR EXTENDED ABSTRACT? Have your 
document ready to upload!

To complete the submission processs, you must upload a paper, poster for 
the interactive paper session, or extended abstract in order to complete 
the submission process.

Before submitting your document, remember to remove all author 
identification from the text, cover page, and the file properties. (In 
the "File" menu select "Properties," delete any identifying information, 
click "OK," and save the document.)

INDIVIDUAL SUBMITTING A PANEL SESSION PROPOSAL? Plan ahead!

The panel organizer submits the panel proposal, and enters all of the 
panel information including each participant. Please search the database 
for the participants you want to add. Creating a second record for a 
person already in the data base will cause problems down the road. In the 
Panel Description field enter the text of your panel proposal including 
rationale, presentation authors and titles, and abstracts or any other 
information mentioned in the Call for Papers. You can do this by copying 
and pasting the text of the panel proposal from your word document.

CONSIDER SUBMITTING A POSTER FOR THE INTERACTIVE PAPER SESSION!

Most ICA divisions and interest groups are accepting poster submissions 
this year. The Montreal ICA conference will feature at least one Plenary 
Interactive Paper (Poster) Session. If you would like your presentation to 
benefit from the advantages of this highly visual, interactive format, 
consider submitting a poster.

ICA AFFILIATE ORGANIZATIONS SHOULD SUBMIT ONLINE!

Affiliate Member organizations of ICA are entitled to at least one panel 
program at the Montreal conference. The highest ranking elected officer or 
designated program planner of each Affiliate Member organization is 
invited to submit a panel proposal through the online submission system by 
the November 1 submission deadline. Follow the instructions for submitting 
a panel session and submit under Sponsored Sessions.

Help is available!

If you need help with online submission, contact the appropriate ICA 
division or interest group program planner. Contact information is listed 
in the Call for Papers. All divisions and interest groups are accepting 
electronic submissions.
