Registration Open for 2024 AMM Conference in Columbus, OH!


AIM enjoyed co-hosting a joint conference with AMM last year in Indianapolis. This year AMM is hosting its in-person conference in our neighboring state of Ohio from July 31-August 3, 2024. Don't missed out on this wonderful opportunity to learn and network with your colleagues in the Midwest.


Can't make it in-person? Consider attending the Conference's Virtual Day on July 24th. Did you know that if you are a staff member of an institutional member you can register for the Virtual Day for free? Learn more about the conference here.


Looking for more ways to save? Consider becoming a virtual day/in-person volunteer. Learn more about volunteering opportunities here.
