ASAP University presentation slides and handout which have been received to date are noted below in chronological order. Each session title is preceded by an alpha numeric code. The letters correspond to the day on which the presentation was held (a = Monday, b = Tuesday, c = Wednesday and d = Thursday). In most cases the numbers correspond to the following types of sessions:

Many participants have expressed that they appreciate the opportunity to review the course slides before, during, and after the presentations. Since having the presentations slides available prior to sessions is frequently noted as an opportunity to improve ASAP University, the presenters have received multiple reminders to submit their presentations prior to ASAP University. That being said, in addition to fulfilling their traditional work requirements, the presenters – both users and sponsor representatives – are graciously giving their time and talent to share their knowledge, experience, and expertise with you. Please be sure to acknowledge your appreciation by completing the session evaluation forms after each presentation. Thank you.
