Session types : Content can be any of the following four session types: • Technical session - a 45 minutes presentation style session featuring technical content. Keynotes, and early-bird sessions are also considered to be technical sessions. • Hands-on labs (HOL) - a 95 minutes session that features self-guided lab descriptions for participants who bring their own laptops to experiment with certain technology. Typically a HOL features one or more instructors for troubleshooting. • Interactive workshop - a 45 minutes workshop with interaction with the attendees. An interactive workshop is ideal to present a new product or service (even if work is in progress). • Unconference - a 45 minutes facilitated, participant driven session centered around a theme or purpose. This kind of session will allow for more audience interaction led by a discussion leader.
