What Are Some of the Features of ProgramMaster? |Back to Top|

ProgramMaster is a powerful, yet easy to use, tool for building conference programming and for publication. Some of the features are:

  • Greater system communication via a suite of action- and date-triggered e-mail messages to notify all system participants of relevant activities (e.g., every abstract submission generates an e-mail notification to the symposium organizer; all authors and co-authors are immediately notified when an abstract is accepted for publication; authors of proceedings manuscripts are reminded of an upcoming deadline).
  • Improved system navigation with virtually every activity that a user can perform within ProgramMaster is no more that three clicks away from the Main Menu. Tutorials and help information is quickly available.
  • The ability to propose and, if approved, manage symposia online. Using the organizer/editor tools link, you can easily review abstracts as the authors submit them, accept or reject abstracts, assemble sessions, contact authors, and export a spreadsheet containing the information about your symposium.
  • The ability to propose a proceedings online. If approved, you can view the manuscripts as the authors upload them, accept or reject manuscripts, and contact authors.
  • The ability of authors to submit abstracts and upload manuscripts online. Via the presenter/author tools link, they can manage all their active submissions from one view.
