RDAP is hosting a Kaffee Klatsch on Thursday, February 19, 2026 at 3pm ET! This will be an informal discussion open to all on topics relevant to experiences of data information professionals and an opportunity to network with others.
Registration is open now! Questions may be directed to membership_at_rdapassociation.org

RDAP will also be hosting a webinar: Getting professional: turning your work into a successful conference proposal
February 25, 2026, 12:00-1:00pm EST
An ongoing requirement for many data professionals is to share their work via conference presentations or publications. This interactive workshop will provide an introduction on how to identify opportunities for conference proposals in the everyday work that you do, and how to write a successful proposal. While the content may be most beneficial to early career professionals or those new to data services, we encourage experienced colleagues to attend so that they can share their tips and tricks with attendees.
Registration is open now, and the webinar is scheduled to be recorded. RDAP webinar recordings are available to RDAP members through the RDAP Hub.
