Preference will be given to proposals that address tools or concepts that course participants can easily share with others. Short Courses will be scheduled for the days before or after the main scientific program, July 16, 17, &#038; 21, 2022 (scheduling as per logistics and travel constraints, but dates finalized on course acceptance), but there is some limited availability for 1.25-hr short courses during lunch breaks of the main program days (July 18-20, 2022). Sessions should be aimed at development of professional skills in topics of key relevance to the practice of conservation.<\/p>\n<p><b>Please Note: <\/b>While we are excited to host our first in-person meeting since 2018, the NACCB 2022 organizing committee is also exploring hybrid options that will allow for some virtual participation. We recognize that 2022 plans are fluid for many folks and that the pandemic and other challenges will influence preferences around virtual and in-person participation at NACCB 2022. At this time, we encourage proposal submissions regardless of format preference, and we will work with organizers of accepted proposals as hybrid planning progresses.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ktj7chkg-1ef000d6cef77e63cd388f96ac17a1d8\">\n#top .hr.av-ktj7chkg-1ef000d6cef77e63cd388f96ac17a1d8{\nmargin-top:10;\nmargin-bottom:10px;\n}\n.hr.av-ktj7chkg-1ef000d6cef77e63cd388f96ac17a1d8 .hr-inner{\nwidth:100%;\nborder-color:#c4b983;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-ktj7chkg-1ef000d6cef77e63cd388f96ac17a1d8 hr-custom  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_toggle_container  hr-center hr-icon-no'><span class='hr-inner inner-border-av-border-thin'><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ktj7f8ab-6cbd1506873768d329a8d067b6d74210\">\n#top .togglecontainer.av-ktj7f8ab-6cbd1506873768d329a8d067b6d74210 p.toggler{\nborder-color:#c4b983;\n}\n#top .togglecontainer.av-ktj7f8ab-6cbd1506873768d329a8d067b6d74210 .toggle_wrap .toggle_content{\nborder-color:#c4b983;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='togglecontainer av-ktj7f8ab-6cbd1506873768d329a8d067b6d74210  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_hr  toggle_close_all' >\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-64bocpb-f8ff8e02bf6f4dc83a05d4b57b292b3b'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p id='toggle-toggle-id-1' data-fake-id='#toggle-id-1' class='toggler  av-title-above av-inherit-border-color'  itemprop=\"headline\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-1' data-slide-speed=\"200\" data-title=\"Proposal Format\" data-title-open=\"\" data-aria_collapsed=\"Click to expand: Proposal Format\" data-aria_expanded=\"Click to collapse: Proposal Format\">Proposal Format<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='toggle-id-1' aria-labelledby='toggle-toggle-id-1' role='region' class='toggle_wrap  av-title-above'  ><div class='toggle_content invers-color av-inherit-border-color'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><b>Proposals must contain the following information:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Short Course title (150 character limit)<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Organizer(s) name, affiliation and title<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Duration \u2013 between 1.25 hours \u2013 16 hours<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Preferred days for hosting short course<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Proposed theme and justification for why the topic is appropriate and significant for a short course\u00a0 (300 word limit)<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">An abstract describing the session.

Organizers are responsible for covering all AV, catering, and additional equipment\/printing costs. Organizers can cover catering and AV costs (orders will be placed by SCBNA) by charging a registration fee for the course. SCBNA will not be able to distribute remaining funds to organizers. The conference committee will work with organizers to determine an appropriate price level for registration, and minimum number of attendees. Organizers may instead choose to cover these costs via sponsorship or other means if obtained. Costs beyond AV and catering must be covered in a manner separate from registration fees. If a short course does not obtain the minimum number of attendees required to cover costs, the session may need to be cancelled. The conference committee will inform organizers of such an event in a timely manner.<\/p>\n<p>For additional questions, contact: <a href=\"mailto:conferences@scbnorthamerica.org\">conferences@scbnorthamerica.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap avia-button-center  avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last '>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ktk8czxx-a5dd0a6db6793f065f814393a6cbde08\">\n#top #wrap_all .avia-button.av-ktk8czxx-a5dd0a6db6793f065f814393a6cbde08{\nbackground-color:#c4b983;\nborder-color:#c4b983;\ncolor:#d36e28;\ntransition:all 0.4s ease-in-out;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .avia-button.av-ktk8czxx-a5dd0a6db6793f065f814393a6cbde08:hover{\ncolor:#ffffff;\ntransition:all 0.4s ease-in-out;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .avia-button.av-ktk8czxx-a5dd0a6db6793f065f814393a6cbde08 .avia-svg-icon svg:first-child{\nfill:#d36e28;\nstroke:#d36e28;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .avia-button.av-ktk8czxx-a5dd0a6db6793f065f814393a6cbde08:hover .avia-svg-icon svg:first-child{\nfill:#ffffff;\nstroke:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<a href='https:\/\/imis.conbio.org\/imis\/iCommerce\/NACCB_Sign_In.aspx?ssoredirect=https:\/\/xcdsystem.com\/scbna\/api\/imis\/index.cfm' class='avia-button avia-button-fullwidth av-ktk8czxx-a5dd0a6db6793f065f814393a6cbde08 avia-icon_select-no avia-color-custom'  target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"  aria-label=\"Submit a Proposal\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >Submit a Proposal<\/span><span class='avia_button_background avia-button avia-button-fullwidth avia-color-theme-color-subtle'><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ktj7h4cc-f23c5e86fb70807a587a8520bc848732\">\n.flex_column.av-ktj7h4cc-f23c5e86fb70807a587a8520bc848732{\nborder-width:2px;\nborder-color:#c4b983;\nborder-style:solid;\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:4px 4px 4px 4px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-ktj7h4cc-f23c5e86fb70807a587a8520bc848732 av_one_fourth  avia-builder-el-12  el_after_av_three_fourth  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-ktj7g2ev-3a3c13d55b0cf17be01fd577420a2c0c '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h4>NACCB 2022<br \/>\nReno, Nevada<br \/>\nJuly 16-21, 2022<\/h4>\n<p>Questions?
