Yes, all courses are virtual, but some may have a “live” discussion component. This means that one time per course, the course director may send out a poll to find the best time for the entire class to get together virtually and have a discussion. Otherwise all courses are virtual and asynchronous.

Some AMIA 10x10 courses also have an optional in-person session that is conducted at the end of the course. These in-person sessions are always optional, never mandatory, to attend. They are held during an AMIA meeting that falls within the year of the AMIA 10x10 course.

Registrants may not transfer to a different host institution's course. Transfers may only occur within the same partner school's AMIA 10x10 program.

If no transfer or refund request is received by AMIA within 30 days after an AMIA 10x10 course has ended, AMIA will assume all terms and conditions have been fulfilled. After that timeframe, registrants are not eligible for transfers or refunds.
