From Aarhus Airport and Billund Airport there are special airport busses directly to the Radisson SAS Scandinavia Hotel or to the train station in the centre of Aarhus.

If you arrive in Copenhagen Airport you can take the train (schedule) directly from the arrival hall in the airport to Aarhus. This is also where you buy tickets.

The conference area is only a 5 minutes walk away from the central train station in Aarhus (Ask for the "Scandinavian Center" or "The Music Hall" and anyone in Aarhus will know where to send you.)

At JAOO

 


Presentation

Please come to your presentation at least 15 minutes before start. Each track will have a host who will introduce you before going on stage and a manager who will help you with practical problems throughout your presentation. Crew members will be guarding the door.

In the presentation rooms you will find a projector, microphone, lapel, a laser pen and there will be wired internet connection for the speaker. Unless otherwise is agreed on, we expect you to use your own laptop for the presentation. It is important that your laptop resolution is set to either 1024 * 768 or 800 * 600 on the VGA output plug otherwise the projector cannot show the screen

 

Presentation slides

You track manager will have a memory stick to hold your slides for later upload. Please provide your track manager with slides preferably in .pdf format immediately after the presentation.

 

Evaluation

Each presentation will be evaluated. The attendees will get an opportunity to either give a green, yellow or red note for each presentation. Green = great presentation, yellow = middle presenation, red = not too great presentation. We kindly ask you to inform and encourage the attendees to help us with this. After your presentation you will receive the results of the evaluation from your own presentation at the Speaker's Desk and after the conference we will send you the results to. 

We will also ask you as a speaker to evaluate the conference. We will send you an electronic evaluation form when we send you your presentation evaluations. Please use 2 minutes to fill in the speaker's evaluation form - it's very important for the JAOO Team in order to improve communication with speakers and the conference.

As a speaker we hope you have interest in the subject of your track and hope that you like to participate in the track and debate all day.
