AATA’s 52nd Annual Conference is Going All Virtual: Early Bird Is Now Open!
After an intensive review of the 2021 Annual Conference we have concluded that our best and safest approach this year is to go completely virtual. We carefully considered the changing landscape of the COVID-19 pandemic which has significantly impacted so many of our members, concerns for potential variant outbreaks, and the data from two conference surveys fielded within the past few months. Our primary priority is the safety and well-being of our members, attendees, and volunteers. Based on what you shared with us in the surveys, we believe that we have made the best possible decision to meet members’ needs, interests, and concerns.
