ACERE no longer produces a Conference Proceedings, however submitting authors will be provided with a statement at the conclusion of the conference that will include the following applicable information where a full paper was received, double blind peer reviewed and presented at the conference.    Papers included in both the academic paper program and the PDS will be stated as being presented.

Testimonials

As a first-time participant and a new doctoral student just 6 months in, the conference has been extremely useful for me in terms of my own personal learning and in meeting new, liked-minded individuals. I would definitely encourage more of my friends to apply the conference in the future.
