What is the Annual Membership Meeting at the APPAM Fall Conference? Why attend the meeting?
APPAM is a membership association. Accordingly, once a year APPAM provides an opportunity for the entire body of the membership to meet in person and act on issues of importance to the membership. For example, increases in membership dues must be approved by the membership during this meeting, and the meeting ratifies the recommendations of the Nominating Committee regarding the election of new officers and Policy Council members. The Annual Membership Meeting also is devoted to honoring the winners of APPAMs various awards. Beginning in 2004, APPAM moved the meeting from lunchtime to breakfast on the Friday of the Fall Conference. If you are a member who has never attended the meeting, please consider doing so it is free and open to all interested persons (a ticket may be required to enjoy a meal served during the meeting).
