Welcome to the AMP newsletter!
The goal of the monthly newsletter is to keep stakeholders up to date about program changes and deadlines. The newsletter has three main content areas:
- Need to Do, which will alert stakeholders to information and requirements for successful program participation, such as upcoming deadlines.
- In Other News, which will share other program-related news, such as upcoming industry webinars or conferences.
- In the Pipeline, which will provide a longer term view of upcoming key program dates.
All newsletters are archived in the Newsletters section of the IHA website, so you can easily find and share the latest program information.
