PARTICIPANT CONFERENCE [4 records]

Record 1 2024-02-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Conferences and Colloquia: Organization
DEF

A person who takes part in a conference.

OBS

delegate: a representative to a convention or conference ...

CONT

... your conference delegates will have peaceful surroundings for work.

CONT

Conference members are asked to write their names and companies on the badge and wear it in a conspicuous place.

OBS

The term delegate implies someone who is nominated to represent others at a conference ... At most of the conferences ..., this is not so, and some who attend are self-appointed. The term, therefore, appears to be a misnomer. It is, however, an accepted term and is more readily understood than any alternative which might be chosen, eg, representative or member. The term is therefore used ... to denote a person attending a conference or course.
