 NACAA 2020 Virtual  AM/PIC - Registration


Dear NACAA Members,

 

I hope this finds you well.

 

As I noted in a previous correspondence, due to Covid-19 restrictions, the NACAA Board has moved to go “virtual” with the 2020 AM/PIC and we have opted to use Microsoft Teams as the platform for this years meeting.  To do this successfully we will have to add you to the 2020 NACAA AM/PIC Team in advance of the meeting.  Please use this registration link to sign-up (Register Here). It's just 7 short questions, and should only take 1 minute or less to complete.  If you are already a Teams user it will enhance your experience if you enter the same email address that you use to access Teams.  Many land grant universities have Microsoft Teams and you may want to check with your IT people if you are not sure.  It is imperative that you register, even if you only plan to participate in 1 event, as you will not have access to the Virtual AM/PIC without being added as a Team member.

 

One of the benefits of using Teams is that you will have only one link to sign onto the annual meeting and then you will be able to negotiate on your own between sessions within Teams, which will allow you to move easily between concurrent member presentations.  As nearly all of us are first timers to this new world of virtual conferencing we will be hosting a series of on-line orientations to help get you up to speed and enhance your on-line experience.

 

Teams also features a virtual lounge where you will be able to hang out and chat with old friends and make new one.

 

Please register early and we look forward to seeing you online for the 2020 NACAA AM/PIC.  The dates once again are Monday, September 28 thru Thursday, October 1, 2020.  A copy of the day to day schedule is now posted online www.nacaa.com on the homepage - or directly at:  https://www.nacaa.com/ampic/2020/2020VirtualAMPIC.php

 

Stay safe and all the best.

 

Gene
