Face 2 Face Considerations for 2021
Face @ Face meetings will be held Thursday, March 18, 2021 11a – 5p EDT and 19 Friday March 19, 2021 9a – 11a EDT.
If your registered organization is a supplier member, it will be automatically signed up for Face 2 Face participation. There is no additional charge for 2021. ABMA will create a schedule for Face 2 Face meetings over the two days and has opened up earlier times on the Friday schedule to allow easier participation from a larger variety of member time zones.
Supplier members will receive their schedule from ABMA and will be responsible for scheduling their own meetings on their own virtual meeting platforms, to have control over their unique bandwidth needs. Any supplier who would like assistance may contact ABMA in advance of the meeting dates. Meetings will be 15 minutes in length and there will be a 5-minute break between meetings. Participation is limited only by the supplier’s virtual meeting capacities.
