APPA CREATES NEW BUSINESS PARTNER ADVISORY COMMITTEE Promoting the value of APPA membership and participation among members of the Business Partner community. The newly launched APPA Business Partner Advisory Committee will identify effective ways that APPA regional and international members can enhance their relationships with business partner members. The goal is to leverage these cooperative relationships to further the objectives of APPA member institutions, affiliates, and the entire APPA membership. The new committee has solicited feedback from all business partners and held its first conference call on February 6. APPA members and partners will be able to keep up with the new committee's accomplishments via a new Web page set to launch soon from the About APPA section of appa.org.
