We recently asked ISA members to take part in a virtual engagement survey. The results indicated that membership would like to see more virtual programming offered throughout the year. The ISA Headquarters is excited to announce a new initiative that will provide our sub-units (Committees, Sections, Caucuses, and Regions) and our partner organizations the opportunity to showcase the valuable work they do for the Association and allow our members to share their expertise on both academic and professional development matters. This Virtual Content initiative will include monthly live events and video and/or audio recordings that will be placed in our online platforms. If you want to be involved in any of these events or have ideas for more, please let Lembe Tiky know: lembe.tiky@isanet.org. Stay tuned and get ready to jump on board!
