The Share Your Expertise program was created to enhance the AAPS Distance Learning electronic education initiative. It provides AAPS members with an additional venue for their publishing interests, and, as an end result, it offers a diverse selection of lower-cost continuing education events. All without the need for travel, lodging, and time away from home and office.

AAPS is currently seeking continuing education content that could be released in any of the following formats:

CD-ROMs containing audio lectures  with synchronized PowerPoint slides.

Web-based presentations containing text and graphics.

Live audio teleconferences with Web-based synchronized slides.

Authors may work alone, or in collaboration with colleagues. Honoraria will be offered based on content, length, and format of program.  

Members who have an idea for a program may contact us for assistance, or may submit the  proposal form  at this time. The Share Your Expertise program is ongoing; there is no submission deadline. Proposals will be evaluated immediately upon receipt.

Step 1
Print, complete, and fax the proposal form to us. We'll review it immediately and contact you within 48 hours. Just click on the link below to get started.

Step 2
Next, we'll discuss with you the most appropriate delivery format for your continuing education seminar. Perhaps it will be a Web-based event, a CD-ROM, or a live audio teleconference from the comfort of your own office. In the latter two  instances, your PowerPoint slides will be synchronized to the lecture, and viewed by all participants. For Web-based events, your graphics can easily be incorporated into the various pages.

Step 3
We will then discuss an appropriate honorarium for your efforts, and ask you to sign our standard author agreement.

Step 4
Create your PowerPoint slides, and either draft your narrative or compile your notes, depending on which presentation venue we have mutually agreed upon.  If your PowerPoint slides contain work that belongs to others (charts, tables, photos, illustrations, etc.) you'll need to contact the original author/publisher for written permission.  We have a special form that will assist you with this process.

Step 5
Finally, and again depending on the venue, we'll either begin the packaging of your seminar on CD-ROM or the Web, or arrange a time for the live audio teleconference.
