IDMA Chapters

 

For those unfamiliar with the meeting structure of the IDMA Chapters, discussions are quite informal and are geared towards audience interest and participation. To get the ball rolling and focus discussions, a list of topics for discussion is usually provided beforehand. Topics of discussion are very fluid and can change during the meeting, provided they involve data management, are in keeping with IDMA guidelines, and are of interest to participants.
IDMA Chapter meetings attendees find these meeting very valuable for content and networking as they address similar data management challenges.

Representing the Midwest region of the United States, the Chicago Chapter of IDMA meets twice a year (June/July and October/November). At these meetings, there is typically a presentation and a discussion of insurance data management issues.
