Staying Connected

Whittlebury Park is offering free Wi-Fi in all areas of the hotel. No code will be needed to connect to the Wi-Fi—just select and connect. However, please be aware that with over 400 delegates, each with 2 or 3 devices to connect to the Wi-Fi, there may be times when network performance is not as quick as you would like.

The Agenda

We have structured the Agenda to enable you to attend a wide choice of presentations.  If you miss a session, we intend to have a copy of the presenter's slides available for download on the agenda page of the GSE Conference Website - look for the icon.  If any sessions are recorded, these will also be available to be viewed from the agenda page - look for the icon.   Your 'My GSE' UserID and password will allow access to these presentations.

Mobile Phones and Pagers

Please silence all mobile phones, pagers and other electronic devices when you attend sessions. You are welcome to take notes during the meeting on your laptop computer but please type quietly and reduce the sound of the keyboard click as much as possible.  Such noises during the session are very distracting to both the speaker and the other attendees. We appreciate your cooperation.

Session and Conference Evaluation

This year, we will be conducting session evaluations electronically. Each session has an associated feedback site, http://conferences.gse.org.uk/2024/feedback/NN, where "NN" is the session code. Links are shown in your BYOA cell and also the abstract section in the main agenda cell.  QR codes will also be posted on the session signs outside the room and, hopefully, on the first and last slides of most presentations, taking you directly to the feedback page.

Your welcome pack includes an overall conference evaluation form. Please complete it after your final session, add any additional comments you want to make, and hand it in at the GSE registration desk. These forms and your written comments are invaluable to us, as they directly contribute to improving future conferences. Your voice matters.

All completed feedback entries will go into a draw daily, with three lucky winners receiving gifts.

Vendor Exhibition

Once again, the vendors have superbly supported the GSE Annual Conference. We have more than 20 vendors on display and would encourage you to visit them all to discuss their products and services. Without their support, we would not be able to keep the cost of attending the conference as low as it is!
