Issue Date:

Network your way to Success at this year’s conference!  The HA Section will be hosting many opportunities for you to network in person!

1)  “Social Media for the Mid-level adapters,”  Sunday, 3:00 p.m. If you are one of those people who didn’t jump on board with Facebook, Linked In and Twitter when they were first taking over the world – but you’d like to learn to use these social media now – come to this Health Administration Business Meeting to hear from the HA Section communication chairs – who will guide you through all those “I think this is a stupid question” moments, and help you to become confident in using, or at least talking about, social media.   Location can be found in the program under Business meetings.

2)  Health Administration Social, Tuesday, Nov. 9, from 7-8:30 p.m. at the Denver Convention Center, room 404.  Bring your business cards, your sense of humor and your energy, and join the HA Section as we celebrate our Section successes, recognize those who have contributed to the field of Health Administration and the Section (See the list of award winners below), and get to know each other. 

3)  The HA Booth in the Expo - Face Time and Networking – with a purpose
Are you planning to attend the APHA Annual meeting in Denver? We need Section members to staff the booth Nov. 7 – 10. Team up with a friend and split the two-hour shift. This can be a fun way to meet other Section members and others who attend the Annual Meeting from around the world.

Reasons to Work at the Health Administration Booth:

    1. It is an easy way to meet members of the Health Administration Section and to meet friends who are at APHA.
    2. It is a way to get involved in the Health Administration Section.
    3. You get a place to sit in the exhibition hall.
    4. You get some food while you are working.
    5. You learn what the “Make us Your Cabin” campaign is about.
    6. You learn about the Health Administration Section.
    7. You get to give out fun items.
    8. You can learn what other activities the Section has at the Annual Meeting.
