TRMA is committed to providing a safe, productive, and welcoming environment for all meeting participants and TRMA staff. All participants, including, but not limited to, attendees, speakers, volunteers, exhibitors, TRMA staff members, service providers, and all others are expected to abide by this Virtual Programs Code of Conduct.

TRMA has zero-tolerance for any form of discrimination, intimidation or harassment by participants or our staff at our meetings. If you experience harassment or hear of any incidents of unacceptable behavior, TRMA asks that you inform Jose Segarra, MNA, CAE, Executive Director at jsegarra@trmanet.org or 312-596-5260 so that we can take the appropriate action.

Unacceptable Behavior is defined as:

• Harassment, intimidation, or discrimination in any form.
• Verbal abuse of any attendee, speaker, volunteer, exhibitor, TRMA staff member, service provider, or other meeting guest.
• Examples of verbal abuse include, but are not limited to, verbal comments related to gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, national origin, inappropriate use of nudity and/or sexual images in public spaces or in presentations, or threatening or stalking any attendee, speaker, volunteer, exhibitor, TRMA staff member, service provider, or other meeting guest.
• Disruption of presentations during educational sessions and networking events, or at other events organized by TRMA throughout the virtual meeting. All participants must comply with the instructions of the moderator and any TRMA virtual event staff.
