Welcome to the 2024 Spring Seminar Mania Program! Born out of necessity in 2021, when gathering together with colleagues was not a viable option for chapters, the greater Midwest ARMA chapters forged untraveled (virtual) territory. These chapters came together and through a lot of hard work, creativity, technology, and passion, the very first Spring Seminar Mania was held. It was a colossal success! We found this format was so much more than a novelty during those challenging times. It has evolved into a practical, sustainable, and boundaryless way for all of us to join together for our common interests, participate in educational sessions, and network with colleagues from all over the country.

16 ARMA Chapters have partnered to provide 16 educational sessions during the months of April and May. Our program participants span the country, from Washington state to Florida, expanding our regional diversity far beyond the Midwest.

So grab your virtual passports and get ready to visit some spectacular destinations. Each time you attend a seminar, your virtual passport is stamped. The more places you visit the more passport stamps you get. The more passport stamps you get the more chances you have to win prizes during and at the end of the event. Don’t wait! Pack your virtual bags!

Learn from the experts in our field, tour these fabulous cities & states graciously hosted by our participating ARMA Chapters, and win great prizes. Mark your calendar and join us for one, many, or all of the following seminars.
