2024 Updates on Professional Interest Sections
INARF’s Professional Interest Section meetings are quarterly meetings offered exclusively to our Members, presenting opportunities to stay informed on current industry-related issues through educational presentations, experiential panel discussions, and connecting with peers through robust discussion.
In 2024, we are further enhancing this Member Benefit by combining the individual quarterly INARF Professional Interest Section meetings into a single day meeting with an Operations and Programs component. These meetings will begin with one main speaker and end with time left to focus more narrowly on information pertaining to the operational or programmatic facets of Member organizations in our breakout groups.
Our next meeting will be held Thursday, November 14th from 10:00 AM - 2:30 PM.
