2 Plan your schedule

Once you have decided on your goals, you should plan your schedule carefully to make the most of your time and energy. You can use the conference program, website, or app to find out the dates, times, and locations of the sessions and events that interest you. You should also check the format, duration, and speakers of each session, and prioritize the ones that are most relevant and useful for you. You can also create a backup plan in case some sessions are full, canceled, or disappointing. Don't forget to leave some time for breaks, meals, and travel.

You should tailor your presentation to your audience, purpose, and time limit. You should also use clear and concise language, visuals, and examples to communicate your main points and contributions. You should also anticipate and prepare for possible questions, comments, and feedback from the audience. You can ask for feedback from your peers, mentors, or supervisors before the conference and make any necessary adjustments.

5 Network effectively

One of the main benefits of attending a research skills conference is the opportunity to network with other researchers and professionals in your field. However, networking can also be intimidating and challenging, especially if you are shy or inexperienced. To network effectively, you should be proactive, friendly, and respectful. You should introduce yourself, ask questions, listen actively, and exchange contact information with the people you meet. You should also follow up with them after the conference and maintain the relationship. You can use social media, email, or phone to stay in touch and share your work, ideas, or opportunities.
