PTA106-25 - CME/CMLE - Path to Atlanta Pre-Recorded Session: Academic Presentations: What's Your Message, Not Your Topic
Course Description

You’ve got data, a topic, and slides — but do you have a message that resonates? This interactive session empowers pathologists and laboratory professionals to transform their academic presentations by shifting focus from simply sharing a topic to delivering a compelling, audience-centered message.

Participants will explore practical frameworks to clarify their core message, structure their content for maximum impact, and improve delivery using visuals and storytelling. To ground these strategies in real-world practice, the session features curated examples from past ASCP faculty presentations — showcasing both effective techniques and opportunities for refinement. Whether you're preparing for a conference, grand rounds, or teaching session, this session will help you elevate your communication and connect more meaningfully with your audience.
