Speaker Resources
Whether you're preparing to submit a session, finalize your presentation, or access the speaker portal, this page gathers everything you need in one place. Explore the tools, templates, and guidelines designed to support you throughout your speaking experience.
Access Your Speaker Portal
Through your Speaker Portal, you may access your speaker tasks pertaining to your session(s). This portal helps you complete important speaker tasks, such as signing your contract, uploading your proceedings and presentation, and much more.

Showcase your groundbreaking research and contribute to advancing the field of specialty veterinary medicine. Selected abstracts will be featured at the 2026 ACVIM Forum, providing an opportunity to share your work with a global community of veterinary professionals.
Presentation Templates
All presentations should be created in PowerPointâ„¢. The ACVIM has created a standard PowerPointâ„¢ template for all speakers to use that is set up in the 16:9 aspect ratio. This template contains a variety of slide layouts and cover options to meet all your presentation needs.
If you choose not to use the presentation templates, please make sure your presentation is developed in the 16:9 aspect ratio, as that is what the conference platform will support. In addition, please ensure you have the following within your presentation slides:
- Presentation title and speaker slide
- Conflict of Interest slide
- Questions/Final slide with names and contact information for all speakers
- We also encourage you to include a slide reminding attendees to complete the session evaluation
