What volunteer opportunities are available at the MVC?
The MVC staff needs volunteers to serve as session moderators. Learn more about moderating »
Who can become a volunteer?
Any MVC attendee can volunteer as a Session Moderator. Please note, you MUST be registered to attend on the day(s) you volunteer. In other words, it’s not a way to attend for free (sorry!).
What is a Session Moderator, and what do they do?
A Session Moderator is essentially a Speaker’s assistant. They introduce the speakers of their selected sessions using an introduction prepared by the MVC staff and, in the event of a problem, assist in locating appropriate staff to resolve A/V equipment or room issues.
What is the time commitment of a Session Moderator?
Volunteers usually moderate for a morning (8 to 11:30 a.m.) or afternoon block of sessions (1:30 to 5 p.m.), but we will gladly accept any level of commitment!
What are the benefits of volunteering as a Session Moderator?
In addition to the networking possibilities, moderators are invited to a complimentary lunch with their speakers on the days they volunteer. As a bonus, all volunteers who sign up by Feb. 10 will be entered in a raffle!
How do I become an MVC Session Moderator?
You may sign up online after completing your MVC registration. A link to the online volunteer sign-up page will be included in your MVC registration confirmation email.
Please note, you will need a valid email address and be a registered attendee in order to volunteer.
Where can I find the moderator kit and speaker introductions?
The moderator kit, including speaker introductions, will be available two weeks prior to the Conference; we will contact you via email once it is available. There will also be hard copies available on site in the session rooms.
