2020 ARBP Research/Bargaining Virtual Conference

December 8- December 11

Although COVID-19 has put a damper on our in-person annual conference, ARBP will never be denied the ability to provide you with excellent virtual learning opportunities.  ARBP is proud to announce our 2020 Conference will be held remotely December 8-11, 2020

In addition to our conference, ARBP will also hold their annual business meeting, which will include electing officers.  Per the ARBP Constitution and Bylaws, Tammy and Greg will appoint a three person Elections Committee to conduct the nomination process and election.  The Elections Committee chairperson and members will be announced to the general membership two months prior to the election.  Any member may submit nomination(s) for any open office either in writing to the Elections Committee chairperson at any time prior to the final business meeting or be nominated from the floor at the business meeting.  In order to be nominated and elected, you must be a member of ARBP.  The membership form is here.  Please, return the completed membership form and dues to Sarah Favinger at the address listed on the membership form.  Once Sarah receives the form and dues she will send a confirmation to your email address.  

As the ARBP Executive Committee has expressed before, we appreciate all of your knowledge and skills.  We can’t wait to see you in December.
