Speakers must have experience presenting in front of an audience. Some examples of speaking experience are, but are not limited to, conference, Camp, user group, and webinar presentations, or less formal presentations such as internal lunch and learns or through groups like Toastmasters. (Speaking on podcasts or radio programs is relevant too!) All speakers must highlight their speaking history and provide at least 1 recording (video or audio recording with slides). Those without official recordings may create and submit a 5 minute recording (video or audio recording with slides) on any topic. Reach out to program committee members via the #session-help Slack channel for tips.

Speakers may submit no more than 3 session proposals.

Sessions may have no more than 4 speakers.

We enthusiastically seek diverse representation among our speakers and believe we will deliver the best DrupalCon yet by amplifying the voices of our community members traditionally underrepresented in tech. Sessions with multiple speakers are encouraged to include at least 1 speaker who belongs to a traditionally underrepresented group(s).

Sessions with 3 or more speakers must include 1 or more speakers who do not identify as a man. Almost all DrupalCon Seattle 2019 sessions with 3 or more speakers met this criteria. Let’s make it 100% in Minneapolis! This requirement only addresses gender but aids progress toward increased diversity, equity, and inclusion at DrupalCon. If you need assistance with meeting this requirement, please reach out to the program committee via the #session-help Slack channel and they will seek to help, perhaps by identifying someone who could join your session.

As a way to spread out the opportunities, speakers may participate in a maximum of 2 sessions, including 1 solo session.

Speakers are required to read and adhere to the DrupalCon Code of Conduct and provide a safe, inclusive environment for all. Please do not submit a session proposal if you have been asked not to attend or speak at another DrupalCon, Camp, meetup, or other tech conference.
