FAAPI Conference Free Pass
APrIR always intends to encourage colleagues to attend the annual FAAPI Conference; consequently, on June 25th, immediately after Mg Regueira`s talk, a name was drawn from the list of volunteers to travel to San Juan and take part in the Conference. The lucky winner was Carla Abbati. APrIR will be paying for her registration fee, and on her return Carla will be writing a 500 word report of the Conference stating her views and what kind of experience she has gained. We hope she enjoys the conference and comes back with a handful of ideas to put into practice.
