Breakout Session Speaker Proposals

We are excited to share that we still have a few opportunities available for session proposals at the 2025 SCCDP Conference.

While most of our spots have been secured, we are seeking engaging presentations in specific areas that are priority topics based on attendee feedback from the last couple of years, ensuring the conference continues to reflect what participants find most valuable.

To help guide submissions, the board has outlined a few key criteria for speakers:

  • Keep it Positive – Inspire and encourage attendees.

  • Make it Motivational – Share stories, insights, or strategies that energize others.

  • Provide a Take-away – Ensure participants leave with a resource, idea, or strategy they can put into practice.

Our goal is to create a meaningful experience for attendees. We’re especially interested in sessions that go beyond a traditional sales pitch and instead provide real value and usable takeaways.
