This happens year after year. After each conference I go in and select all the sessions I could not attend, but wanted to, and those I did, and then painstakingly open each one looking for slides and handouts. Precious few ever actually upload. I should have learned by now not to bother. Yes, I can email a person whose session I attended, but for all the wonderful sessions I couldn't attend, I don't have contact info for those presenters. NAEYC need to look for another option. Maybe just tell us to look up the presenter by name, and then provide an email. Or include emails and websites in the summary for each session on the app. It won't be nearly as easy as being able to download them from the app, but at least we'd get them eventually.

Subject: Conference Handouts and Power Points?
I like handouts with the powerpoints because it helps me with keeping up on the topic we are discussing

I wonder how many presenters are going to use the itinerary planner to post their handouts/PowerPoints. Many of the presenters I went to were telling us to use other methods like direct email. I've looked for sessions I was curious about seeing handouts, and you are right, not many are there.
