ACFE Webinars We are always accepting proposals for webinar presentations.
Selection Criteria
A proposed session must clearly apply to the identified target audience and be delivered by a speaker with substantial topic knowledge (i.e., a subject-matter expert) and experience facilitating a learning environment and/or speaking to large groups. For regional conferences, we select speakers who reside, work and have knowledge of the anti-fraud trends in that region.
Our committee evaluates proposals using the following criteria:
Advanced and intermediate topics preferred over basic or overview sessions
Current, practical and innovative content that relates to the anti-fraud profession
Programs and best practices that demonstrate measurable impact and results in the fight against fraud
Global issues addressing interests of the international community and multinational organizations
Application-focused learning objectives that can realistically be met in the time allotted
Clear, specific and informative content that is directly linked to the learning objectives
Completeness, accuracy and clarity
Anti-fraud skills that attendees can "begin to use Monday morning"
Proposals submitted for one event can also be considered for another conference or webinar at the discretion of the ACFE and with approval of the speaker.
NOTE: Due to the short session duration and the economics of travel, coordination, etc., the ACFE rarely entertains proposals for panels or co-presenters. If necessary, co-presenters should be noted in the proposal in the Abstract section.
Submission Process
To submit a proposal, click on the link at the bottom of this page and complete every field on the proposal form. Many more proposals are submitted than can be selected, so it is important that you include all required and relevant information to be properly and fairly considered.
Shortly after you have
submitted a proposal you will receive an email notification with a copy of your proposal confirming receipt by the ACFE. Please check your junk folder if you do not receive confirmation.
