IAAM Improves Website for Student Volunteers

Coppell, TX—The International Association of Assembly Managers, Inc. is pleased to announce that for the first time in history, student scholarship and volunteer instructions for the Annual Conference & Trade Show are available on the IAAM website.

The new documents will be part of IAAM’s 83rd Annual Conference & Trade Show webpage. Including the documents as part of the conference information comes as a result of increased participation from students at the Annual Conference & Trade Show and a need to provide a more efficient outlet for the information.

By including the documents on the web, IAAM is targeting new generations of technologically savvy students that would like to attend as volunteers. The addition should provide a more convenient and efficient process for both the interested students and the IAAM staff.

“The future of this association lies with the students that come and gain knowledge from our industry leaders at our various meetings. Opportunities to volunteer at our Annual Conference and Trade Show are increasing because it is the highest attended event of the entire year,” said, IAAM Executive Director, Dexter King, CFE.

IAAM hosts an average of 25 students each year and is looking to host around 40 this year. Students chosen to volunteer this year are required to work a minimum of 20 hours, and uphold the ethical and professional standards of the association. All of the documents are currently available online and can be accessed by clicking here. All applications must be post marked or received by May 2, 2008. The 83rd Annual Conference and Tradeshow will take place in Anaheim, CA, July 25-29.
