IEDM Speaker Dashboard

IEDM has implemented a Speaker Dashboard to keep all the relevant details and action items in one convenient place. This is where all future communications and action items will be based. Use of the dashboard is mandatory and is the only place where speakers can view/upload a new bio and headshot. Speakers will be sent an email in early October with instructions and link to create an account. If you need that information resent please send a request to iedm-info@ieee.org.

The following action items are due soon, so make sure to create an account and review your dashboard as soon as possible:

  • August 19

    • Presentation title, speaker photo, speaker bio and 150 word abstract due to Short Course Chair
