AADPRT ACTIONS

------------

Renewal deadline is SUNDAY!

We highly suggest you renew today if you haven't already. The AADPRT office is closed on weekends and can't assist with renewal issues.

Accounts not renewed by 8/31 will expire. Paid dues for the 25-26 membership year are required to submit abstracts, awards, and PA Symposium proposals and to serve on AADPRT committees.

Non-renewed Institution Dues (separate from Individual Dues and assigned to the first PA to renew), will cause ALL accounts to become inactive.

How to renew:

1) Log into to your account between 7/1 and 8/31.

2) Click the renewal button on your dashboard and complete payment. If you don't see a renew button, you've already renewed.

Submit your PA Symposium proposal

Whether you're an experienced program administrator (PA) or have a few years under your belt, share your ideas and best practices by submitting a proposal to present at the Annual Meeting PA Symposium. Proposal acceptance can help justify approval from your institution to attend the Annual Meeting and is an excellent resumé builder.

Some of the relevant topics that are trending among your colleagues:

• AI tools/utilization
• Recruitment (ERAS, NRMP, SOAP, the Match)
• C-TAGME certification
• Leadership skills

September is Medical Research Month. From life-saving treatments to fueling economic growth, NIH-funded research is improving the quality of life for all Americans. Appropriations discussions this fall will be critical to ensure that NIH-funded research can continue to save lives, support economic development, and promote better health outcomes for patients, families and communities across the country.
