For those new to AMWA or perhaps just new to the Annual Conference, two important events are on tap: the New Member Orientation at 4:15 and the Conference Coach Connection at 5:15.
The orientation is a good opportunity to hear from AMWA leaders about the structure of the organization, goals for the coming year, benefits of membership, and opportunities from become more involved at the chapter or national level. Traditionally, there also is an opportunity to ask questions about why things are as they are and offer suggestions.
At the Conference Coach Connection, first-time conference attendees are matched with veteran conference-goers. That way, newcomers will know at least someone from the outset. It also provides a good chance to ask questions about the organization or get some guidance about navigating the many activities of the conference ahead.
Also on Wednesday: A welcome reception, sponsored by RPS Inc., is scheduled from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Entertainment will be provided, along with with complimentary hors d'ouevres and beverages.
Capping off the day at 8:15 pm.: AMWA Creative Readings. At this event, AMWA members prove annually that they are not just about the highest standards of medical communication, they can also tell half-decent jokes, sing songs, and write poems, plays and short stories. Or at least some of them can.
