NEW! Online Session Evaluations and Tracking Professional Development

All attendees can now evaluate sessions online while simultaneously tracking their professional development certification (based on clock hours).

Help NSTA's GREEN efforts by clicking here to complete session evaluations online. During the conference, session evaluations can be completed on the computers at the Presenters/Presiders booth in the Registration Area or on the e-mail stations in both the Exhibit Hall and the Registration Area. To evaluate a session, attendees should follow these steps:

  • Enter badge number (if you don't remember your badge number, click "help me find my badge number").
  • Type the beginning of the session title in the "Lookup Session" field, scroll down to find the correct session, and click the "Submit Session" button. The session information will appear and you can begin to evaluate the session.
  • When finished evaluating the session, click the "Submit Evaluation" button.
  • Repeat this process for each session attended.

Concurrent session presenters may also complete evaluation forms for their own sessions in order to track professional development credit.

Approximately three–four weeks after the last day of the conference, an attendee can visit www.nsta.org/transcripts via the NSTA Learning Center to access a transcript of his or her attendance at specific sessions and to document credit for activities that are not being evaluated (e.g., field trips, short courses, Exhibit Hall visits, featured speakers, meetings, etc.). In addition, the NSTA Learning Center offers professional development experiences (online and face-to-face) for your long-term growth and professionalism.

A Professional Development Documentation Form is included in the conference programs to help attendees keep track of sessions/events attended that are NOT available for online session evaluation. This form can also be used to take notes on sessions attended that are available for online session evaluation.

A transcript can be printed here and presented to an administrator who requires documentation of participation in the conference. All information in these transcripts will be maintained (and can be accessed) indefinitely as part of an attendee’s individual profile.
