Introduction
If your training submission is chosen to be presented at Netroots Nation 2013, we need to make sure you understand your commitment as a training organizer. Please confirm you understand by checking the boxes below:

• I understand a significant amount of work will be required of me in the months and weeks (not days) before Netroots Nation 2013.
  • I understand this and accept responsibility for this work.
• I understand that while my idea may be selected, Netroots Nation may ask that I tweak the training (either its content or makeup) to fit general themes and ensure a diversity of thought on the training.
  • I understand and accept that my panel may be tweaked.
• I understand that as a training organizer, I will play a pivotal role as an intermediary between Netroots Nation and my co-trainers. Netroots Nation will send out communications, but I hold the primary responsibility for keeping my co-trainers up to date on relevant information.
  • I understand and accept that I’m the training organizer for this submission.
• I will adhere to all deadlines and provide information to NN as it is requested and in a timely manner. Failure to provide NN with necessary information can lead to cancellation of a panel.
