Charge | To evaluate the benefits and limitations of both in-person and virtual meeting formats, and recommend the appropriate balance of formats for future AAPM meetings. In particular, the committee will consider the impact of meeting format on:
- The content of meetings in order to best meet the needs of our members
- Revenues for the association
- Issues related to online learning and MOC
- Intangible elements of meetings, including personal interactions and the satisfaction of our member experience
- Expanding attendance by those who cannot get away to attend a meeting in person
- Expanding the ability of international attendees to participate
- The needs of our vendor partners
- Committee and governance meetings (e.g., Board meetings, Council meetings, committee meetings) that often occur simultaneously with in-person meetings
- The fatigue of the volunteer pool involved in planning meetings
The committee should include the following considerations in its recommendations:
- The potentially different learning styles favored by both younger and more senior physicists
- The relative value of simultaneity of meeting content (as opposed to having asynchronous viewing not tied to a particular day or time)
