This page provides a quick starting point for conference organisers using the XJTLU Academic Conference Information Publishing System. Please follow the links below for step-by-step guidance on the most common conference setup tasks.
- Lectures can be seen as a single presentation, with one or more speakers.
- Meetings are generally composed of many presentations. They have a timetable and can last multiple days, although they most commonly happen on a single day. Contributions (talks) can be organised in sessions.
- Conferences generally last multiple days and have the advantage over meetings of allowing multiple sessions to happen in parallel. They also offer flexible abstract and paper reviewing/editing workflows.
Important: Before creating a conference, please contact your School/Academy POC to obtain the conference creation permission.
