The 2022 Consortium Annual Conference: “The Power of the Past and the Force of the Future”- Call for Poster Presentations
The 2022 National Nurse Practitioner Residency and Fellowship Training Consortium (“The Consortium”) is accepting poster abstracts. The poster sessions will contribute to our professional community of practice by sharing ideas, best practices, how we overcome challenges, and exemplars of postgraduate training. Examples might be a description of an APP post-graduate training experience (curriculum, evaluation, faculty development, academic partnership, etc.), implementation of interdisciplinary programs, and collaborations that result in innovation and excellence. (Please note–The information presented must be free from commercial bias.)
DEADLINES:
Poster abstracts can be submitted through June 1, 2022
The conference is July 24-25 in Washington, DC
Poster sessions will be on the July 24th (10:30-11:00am and 11:45am-1:00pm) and July 25th (11:45am-1:00pm)
What Is a Poster Presentation and How Does it Work?
A poster is a visual way to disseminate and share your innovations. It is a hybrid of a written paper and an oral presentation that enhances one-on-one networking opportunities for conference attendees. A poster could stand alone without a presenter, but the presenter enhances the information. Presenters stand alongside to stress key points, answer questions, and receive feedback.
Accepted posters should be printed on fabric or material that can be ‘wall mounted’ in a poster board space that extends HORIZONTALLY. The poster dimensions should be 48” wide x 36” high. Please make sure your poster is designed and printed according to these dimensions.

Poster Presentations: Presenter Requirements, Cancellation and No-Show Policy
The Consortium views a submission of an abstract as a commitment by the author(s) to present the poster/abstract if their submission is accepted. Late cancellations and failures to give scheduled presentations without prior notification (“no-shows”) are disruptive and inconvenient for conference attendees and organizers. The Consortium has adopted the following policies to prevent avoidable cancellations and no-shows and to improve the overall quality of our programs:
Presenter Requirements
The lead author of a poster submission is the designated contact and poster presenter for that submission (if accepted). The lead author of an ACCEPTED poster must register for the Consortium conference, at the appropriate rate, in order to present their poster at their scheduled session time.
Presenter Cancellations
If the lead author cannot attend, a presentation by a co-author is acceptable. However, the lead author is responsible for notifying Consortium staff, via email, of the change and ensuring that their replacement is registered and paid in full for all Consortium conference fees. Please make every effort to notify the Consortium of presenter cancellations and presenter changes by July 1, 2022.
Abstract Withdrawal
We ask to be notified of poster withdrawal by July 1, 2022. Please email the notification to withdraw posters to the consortium staff.
