TAKE ACTION

 

Less Than One Month Until #AIRA2024 

Sign up for your AART Clinic Today!

Throughout the AIRA 2024 National Meeting, AIRA technical staff will offer personalized 30-minute AART clinic appointments for IIS teams to review their Measurement and Improvement (M&I) results in AART (Aggregate Analysis Reporting Tool). Appointments fill up fast so make sure to book your team’s AART clinic appointment today!

IIS staff who are new to M&I and AART are also encouraged to attend a 20-minute AART 101 session before attending their AART clinic to maximize their appointment time. If interested, sign up for an AART 101 session time that works for you!

 

Contact Tesha Lucas at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with any questions. We look forward to seeing you soon!

 

During the National Meeting, connect in-person with members from AIRA’s Publication Project Workgroup (PPW) at their “Let’s Talk Publishing” table. This is a great opportunity for National Meeting attendees to meet with publication “experts” to discuss publication of peer-reviewed IIS-related articles. Chat with PPW members about moving your presentation to publication. 

There is less than one month until we all gather in Orlando, Florida, for the AIRA 2024 National Meeting. At this point, we know that things can get a little busy, so we pulled together a to-do list for you.

We are looking forward to learning from you May 7–9 in Orlando, Florida!
