Acceptable educational formats for a CME satellite symposium include presentations by speakers, panel discussions, workshops, and video presentations. For application information, visit meeting.aesnet.org/ satellite-cme-symposium-guidelines.

All industry and other meetings and events including alumni reunions, receptions, board meetings, and committee meetings must be approved and confirmed by AES in advance.
