Professional Abstract Assignment
Call for Abstracts Activity: Dissemination plan and professional development activity.
This assignment is designed to assist you with identifying opportunities for DNP project dissemination and successfully responding to these calls for participation aka Call for Abstracts.
MY PROJECT: “Decreasing Vaccine Hesitancy and Increasing Vaccine Uptake in African American Adults.”
The steps to these requirements are as follows:
1) identify a “best fit” nursing or related field conference for DNP Project Presentation. REQUIREMENT: Discuss your rationale for this selection. Describe how your project “fits” with this particular conference and pay careful attention to describing the usual audience of this conference. How might your project appeal to these learners?
2) Explore the usual Call for Abstracts timeline for this particular conference. If there is no active Call, what do you anticipate will be the opening time for the next submission period. REQUIREMENT: Discuss this actual timeline OR explain how you have arrived at your anticipated timeline.
3) Describe the current or most recent conference theme. REQUIREMENT: Describe how your project might fit with this conference theme.
4) Following the directions from the current call for abstracts or following a past call OR, if neither is available to you, following a call for abstracts that you have located for a different conference that might be of interest to you, craft an abstract for your DNP Project.
Identifying the “best fit opportunity.”
Constructs and shares a coherent analysis of why this conference opportunity makes sense
given your DNP project focus and your expertise. All content is original, accurate, relevant, &
appropriately sophisticated/scholarly. The content demonstrates that the doctoral student
has carefully evaluated potential options and has made a well-informed selection.
Call for abstracts timeline.
Describes the typical call for abstracts timeline for this selected conference. Searches for
information on the web, including on the related organization’s website to construct a likely
timeline or to locate an accurate timeline for 2021-2022. Provides sufficient detail to support
that this timeline is probably fairly accurate if exact information is not yet posted/available.
Conference theme and potential project fit.
Describes the upcoming conference theme. If not yet available, describe the mission and
focus of the hosting organization. Make the case that this is an appropriate and likely
successful venue for your DNP project dissemination. How might your project be focused to
satisfy the priorities of the organization and its conference?

competency.
