Each One, Reach One gives first-time meeting attendees the opportunity to meet and learn from an experienced IAEE member, and have a friendly contact to talk to and ask questions of throughout the conference. The mentor gains the opportunity of meeting new colleagues and sharing their expertise. These relationships can develop into collegial friendships and continue long after the conference is over.
