Speaker Roundtables
The RAIR Symposium is dedicated to making the participant's learning experience exceptional. To that end we are offering an opportunity for speakers and participants to engage in informal discussions outside of symposium sessions. This opportunity is taking the form of evening 'Roundtables.' These will be held Thursday, February 26 and Friday, February 27 from 7 to 8 PM and are only open to participants of the Symposium. There is no charge to attend and they do not qualify for CEUs. Participation will be limited and preference will be given to the first to sign up. Each speaker will host a table; please indicate which speaker's table you'd like to join in your email.
