Through the volunteer efforts of its members, and with assistance from the NCURA National Office,
Region I offers a wide variety of educational, networking, and
professional development programs available to Region I members.In addition to active participation at the NCURA Annual Meeting in Washington, DC each year, Region I holds its own Annual Meeting each spring, several half-day Boston-based Research Administrators Discussion Group (RADG) meetings, as well as periodic one-day workshops geared toward enhancing the skills of both new and more seasoned professionals.In
2008, Region I also initiated a Mentor Program designed to offer a more
personal touch to the training and development of research
administrators with less than five years of experience. We are also very successful in the area of volunteerism, without which, most of our programs could not be offered.All
regional members are welcome to explore and, ultimately, participate in
these volunteer activities and we encourage everyone to consider
becoming involved at some level so as to sustain and improve upon the
region's capabilities.
As always, we welcome your
continued suggestions for making the Region I website your primary
resource for education, networking, and professional development.
