Workshops
In addition to our Annual Conference, each year NEMA offers a Spring Workshop Series. All workshops and meetings are advertised in our quarterly journal, NEMA News. Workshops sponsored by a Professional Affinity Group are open to all NEMA members; there is no separate membership for these groups. Non-members are also welcome to attend.
