Can I draft the APT in Microsoft Word first and then copy and paste into the APT submission system?
YES! We highly recommend it. Similar to submitting an online conference proposal, it’s a good idea to draft the APT in Word first and then copy and paste the final version (i.e., a version that your dept. head will review) via the website listed above. In Word it is easier to edit and work with others. Additionally, the Word document can serve as your own backup.
