Submission Steps for Individuals

You are just 2 steps away from sharing your knowledge with the world!

Step 1. Registration 

• Registration Part 1 - Begin the registration process by clicking here. Alternatively, you may click on the My Account option located in the top right-hand corner of the Sigma Repository homepage and select Sign Up under Create New Account.
• Registration Part 2 - Upon initializing the registration process, you will receive an email from mailsystem@bepress.com. Subject line: Sigma Repository: Account Confirmation. Follow the instructions in that email to complete your account setup. If you do not receive this email, check your spam folder. 

  Step 2. Submission

• Complete the submission form. 
• Please use the same email that you used for account registration.

*Materials must include the following file attachments:

1. Poster or presentation slide file (in PDF format),
2. A formal abstract with headings (250 word minimum), references, and learning outcomes (in PDF format), and
3. A video/audio recording of your presentation (optional). If you choose to upload the optional video/audio file and it is too large, contact Sigma Repository staff at repository@sigmanursing.org.
   
   Stand Alone. The poster or presentation slide deck must contain enough information to be considered more than a restatement of the abstract and must add to the scientific/clinical discourse. If a video/audio file is not uploaded, make sure that your subject knowledge is sufficiently conveyed in the text, graphs, and tables of the poster/slides.

Processing Time

• Allow staff 30 to 90 days for processing your submission. Turnaround is usually 24 to 48 hours (excludes weekends and holidays) during off-peak periods.
• Upon posting, you will receive an email from Sigma Repository staff with the permanent link to your item record. Share that link/email with your event host contact as evidence of your participation in the Sigma Repository.
