Greetings ALP-RBHS Alumni,

For the first session, we will focus on the leadership challenges and opportunities posed by COVID-19. Participants will be able to interact in the main room and in small groups (depending on the number of attendees) by choosing 2 breakout sessions based on areas of interest:

Clinical Operations
Remote/Virtual Teams
Classroom/Teaching Activities

We will offer this session at two separate times to account for various schedules and availability:

November 17 at 4:30pm – registration link
December 9 at 1:00pm –registration link

We invite you to select one of the above and register to attend. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing Zoom details.
