Short Course Call for Abstract Guidelines
DIA wants to hear from you! We are accepting abstracts for short courses to be offered in advance of the DIA 2024 Global Annual Meeting during our DIA 2024 Call for Short Course Abstracts.
Short Courses are “hands-on”, interactive learning experiences for a group
of 25-50, designed to enhance knowledge in both broad and specific areas and to improve the day-to-day job function of participants. DIA encourages abstracts that showcase future trends; offer unique ideas; share interesting case studies; foster diversity, equity, and inclusion; and accelerate innovation. Our Track Chairs have highlighted priority topics within their educational tracks to provide direction on content they would like to receive. You may submit abstracts addressing priority topics and/or topics relevant to the DIA 2024 track descriptions. Both priority topics and track-specific topics will be reviewed and considered by DIA.
