  • AANP Presentation Expectations

    When submitting a proposal to present at national conference, please be aware of AANP’s presentation expectations:

    • AANP’s Accreditation Standards and Policies must be followed. For a summary of the accreditation standards and other requirements for the presentations, see the Speaker and Presentation Rules.
    • Presentations should be free of copyrighted materials, or written permission to use those copyrighted materials must be provided. Review the Speaker Guide for tips on how to prevent copyright infringement and additional information.
    • Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are not human and cannot take responsibility for the information included in an abstract or other developed product. If Submitter uses an AI tool in any part of the preparation or creation of their abstract, the Submitter must disclose via citation which tool was used and how it was used. Submitters must research and verify any information provided by an AI tool. Submitters are responsible for the contents of their works, even if some of the contents are created by an AI tool. Even if Submitter utilizes an AI tool and correctly cites that tool, if the AI provided materials that are biased, plagiarized, or in violation of copyright or other agreements, the Submitter is ultimately responsible for these ethical violations. “AI tools” do not include spell checking or grammar checking tools.
    • All speakers must be available to present on any of the conference dates between June 23-28, 2026, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
