UPCOMING EVENT

Dear HpBc SIG members:

I invite you to our HpBc SIG meeting at the 2025 ICHRIE Global Conference.

Please check out the flyer above for a panel session with insights on leadership, accreditation, teaching, and service.

I am so excited to share our panel speakers during our session at ICHRIE: Dr. Peter Ricci, Dr. Ali Green, Dr. Duchamp, and Dr. Palabiyik.

Our HpBc SIG session is scheduled for next Friday, 20 June 2025, at 1:30 PM in Room 106.

As many of the SIG members are not attending the ICHRIE conference, we would like to hold a hybrid session of our presentation so you can attend virtually.

Please use the following Zoom link for our SIG meeting: https://wvu.zoom.us/my/ajayaluri.

Also, feel free to share this Zoom link with your colleagues and friends who might be interested in attending this SIG meeting at ICHRIE or virtually.

I look forward to seeing you at Indy!

Best regards,
