Although not required, we highly recommend that military presenters also include a clearance slug on the slide. Example shown below:
2. All presentations must include a Disclaimer/Conflict of Interest Slide (samples below), which needs to be listed on one of your first slides preceding your presentation slides.
3. Proper playback:
a) Presentation is in PPT format and set to 16:9 wide format

c) File size must not exceed 400MB
