14TH ANNUAL EMAT SYMPOSIUM

Due to the current COVID-19 situation and jurisdictional and state agency budget restrictions, a decision has been made to cancel an in person Symposium scheduled for February 28-March 3, 2021. This decision was supported by a Board of Director's vote. Please know this was a difficult decision to make, however, the Symposium Committee will discuss other possible options to serve the membership, such as a virtual event. It is the committee's goal to continue to provide timely and educational information to EMAT's membership of the highest quality possible.

2021 EMAT Awards

More information will be posted soon on the 2021 EMAT Awards. Nominations will open on October 19, 2020 and will close on January 22, 2021. A virtual Awards Show will be part of the 14th Annual Symposium to honor award nominees. More information can be found on the Awards Page.
