Join a Committee

This committee is a group of individuals tasked with the responsibility of sourcing, evaluating, and selecting technical papers for the Annual Meeting. The committee actively seeks out high-quality technical papers from reputable sources. Each paper undergoes a thorough evaluation process to assess its relevance, methodology, and contribution to the field. Review of technical papers is conducted by the committee.

The Short Courses and Webinars Committee is responsible for identifying content for the Short Courses during the Annual Meeting, and the webinar content throughout the year. The committee will identify relevant and trending topics within our industry or field of interest that will captivate our audience. They will identify and invite subject matter experts, thought leaders, and practitioners to serve as speakers for the webinars. The committee will continuously assess the effectiveness of webinar content through attendee feedback, engagement metrics, and industry benchmarks, and use this data to inform future content development efforts.

The Marketing and Communications Committee is tasked with developing and implementing strategies to effectively communicate the TRFA's message, goals, and initiatives to its target audience. This includes advisement and content development in collaboration with the TRFA staff related to the TRFA e-Newsletter, website, email blasts and social media posts. This involves identifying target audiences, determining key messages, and selecting appropriate channels and tactics to reach them. 

The Membership Committee plays a crucial role in growing and sustaining the TRFA's membership base, ensuring its long-term viability and success. The committee devises strategies to attract new members to the organization. They plan and execute membership drives or campaigns to actively seek out new members. In addition to recruiting new members, the committee also focuses on retaining existing members. They develop programs and initiatives to enhance the membership experience, address member needs, and encourage ongoing participation.
