Preparing for your Panel

Once you have registered for an IGNITE Panel, we ask that new Panelists:

  1. Complete this IGNITE Panelist Training.
  2. Register for a one-hour, live, virtual Panelist Coaching Session, where you’ll get to practice with fellow volunteers. Even for those who are comfortable with public speaking, the student audience and student-driven Q&A can be a very different experience, so practice time is valuable!

The time commitment for first-time Panelist volunteers is roughly 3-4 hours, including training and preparation.
