Education Committee 2025

The DMAA Education Committee works to create an education schedule that will be beneficial to the professional viability and success of our members. Members of the Education Committee research and develop educational courses and seminars, and volunteer time at educational events and seminars. The DMAA won the NAA Excellence Award (formerly Paragon Award) for Education in 2010.

The Education Committee meets the fourth Wednesday of each month at 9:00am via scheduled Zoom Conference.
