April 15-17th, 2011
The Prestige Hotel & Conference Centre
Sooke, BC
New in 2011, the VIEP Conference will include a Poster Presentation session as part of the conference’s opening
festivities. Poster Presentations provide an opportunity for those who wish to share best practices or research
related to emergency management or preparedness initiatives with others who attend the Friday evening pre-
conference networking event. The focus will be on highlighting Vancouver Island projects/ practices/ research or
those that would benefit Vancouver Island communities in emergency preparedness or planning.
The Poster Presentation session will be held between 6:00 pm- 7:30 pm on Friday, April 15th as part of the
Conference’s OPENING NETWORK RECEPTION, INFORMATION EXCHANGE AND BOOTH DISPLAY.
What is a Poster Presentation?
Posters provide the opportunity to showcase special projects and initiatives that your team or community have
undertaken. The Poster should include detailed information about what has been done, the benefits and
involvement of the community or stakeholders, what makes it unique or innovative, and lessons learned or
recommendations for next steps.
