Reception
The Reception tab is the first screen you will see when you join the event. It's a lobby where people learn about the event and get oriented. The Schedule is located there as well as general information about the event, the booths and what is active in the Stages tab.
STAGES
The Stages tab is the place where all universities will present content-oriented sessions. We have two allocated stages - Stage 1 and Stage 2. Please take a look at the Reception to view schedule and presenters.
You will receive an e-mail from SRT Team to let you know on which Stage are you presenting. Please arrive at the dedicated stage 3 minutes before the session start time. A member of the SRT team will introduce the session and you will present in accordance with the order.
Backstage
The event's Backstage is a private video chat that allows Speakers and Organizers rehearse before going live in front of attendees.
EXPO University Booths
This is the area where attendees can see the list of all universities. All brochures, presentations, teaser classes, photos, videos, campus information and program details will be pre-uploaded. Students search in the Expo by country and program type, and/or by entering education-sector-specific pavilions.
10 minutes individual university presentations will be presented at the booths. These sessions will be promoted during the event. Please note that the presentations will not be recorded.
Replay / Recordings
Recordings of Stage 1 and Stage 2 will automatically appear in the Replay / Recordings tab of the event dashboard after the event is over.
Help Desk
In the Expo tab or when you click the tab Help Desk you can find our SRT Help Desk. If you have any questions, you can contact our team there.

TIPS TO ATTEND THE EVENT
- When the event is live, you can start exploring. The active tabs are marked with a red button.
- You may take part in public and individual chats, or polls.
- To connect with people individually, just click the People tab and choose the person you’d like to meet. All meetings can be found at My Agenda tab. You can invite them to a video call, schedule a meeting or send them a message.
- You have moderator and speaker permissions once you complete your registration. When you are at your booth and you are presenting you can invite attendees with camera and mic on. To invite use the Moderation panel. It is located at the left bottom of the booth. Click on the person you want to invite. The attendee will appear on screen only if he/she has accepted your invitation.
- If you want to edit your booth, please don’t delete the Website field, because it is the download link for the button of your brochure.
