Sessions are the place to present current research towards the application of technologies in research, management and presentation of cultural heritage. They usually consist of a series of lectures of max. 20 minutes. The contributions can be published as papers or short papers in the proceedings.

The focus of the round tables is more on discussion on current topics in the field, furthered by short talks on the topic of about 5 to 10 minutes, that can be published as short papers in the proceedings.

A panel is used to give short inputs and to discuss and share experiences on an interdisciplinary basis. On the basis of one or two (invited) keynote speeches, different statements are introduced into the panel.

These hands-on trainings present state-of-the-art methods and technologies and can be practiced by all participants of CHNT30. The duration depends on the type of training.
