Members and Friends,
I am excited to provide an update on IPAC activities this year; the 2022 Board of Directors and volunteers have been hard at work identifying programming and services to support and engage our membership.
So far this year, IPAC has held four events: (1) a webinar through the GLEAN Chapter on reducing bias in assessor ratings, (2) a Roundtable event discussing COVID’s impact on test administration and assessments, and (3) two Student/Early Career Learning Series events – one on structured interviews and one on validation. IPAC members can access our webinar content through our Insights Video Library.
We are excited to expand our webinar content – as well as plan some upcoming social events. So, stay tuned! Visit our events calendar for updates on our programming.
The 2022 IPAC Annual Conference is fast approaching, and I do hope you plan to visit us in San Diego July 17 to 20. This will be our first in-person conference since 2019 and we are eager to see you. We have a fantastic line-up of keynote speakers and programming coming your way. We also have awesome vendors and sponsors who will be joining us! Don’t miss out – visit the conference website to register for the conference and reserve your hotel rooms.
IPAC is successful because of our wonderful volunteers. Please consider giving your time back to the community by volunteering with IPAC. We are actively looking for folks interested in conference committee positions, board positions, as well as other chair positions (including those with a focus on marketing and communication, and electronic systems – such as website and webinar maintenance). I am happy to chat about opportunities, just let me know! Reach out to info@ipacweb.org.
Of course, if you have any suggestions for programming, networking events, or other community building activities that would benefit the IPAC membership, please reach out: info@ipacweb.org.
On behalf of the 2022 IPAC Board of Directors, I want to express our excitement in serving the IPAC community this year. We look forward to seeing you at one of our events!
Sincerely,
Emilee Tison
IPAC President
