Each year since 2023 IPMS/USA has surveyed the attendees at our National Convention to understand more about why members attend, what they like and don’t like, and how we can improve the convention experience. Here is the survey summary of the 2025 Hampton Virginia convention, put together by our new Data Manager, Nate Pollock. Nate was able to take data from each of the last three conventions to compare how members feel about their convention experience.

I just wanted to post a brief update on the fact that IPMS/USA continues to provide two initiatives aimed at active, retired and disabled service members. These are as follows:

Disabled veterans – IPMS/USA will provide a free year’s membership to any disabled veteran of a US military branch in appreciation for their sacrifices in support of our country.
