LEADERSHIP UPDATES

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Rebecca Oreto, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA

Hello ITAIS members! I hope the new school year finds you all happy and healthy (if a bit overworked!). In this issue, we have two articles by colleagues from the University of Southern California and Carnegie Mellon University touching on important issues in ITA training. As always, the practical and useful information in these articles will help ITA trainers update and implement their programs more effectively.

Call for articles for the December 2012 issue of the ITAIS newsletter:

I will be accepting articles for publication until Friday, October 26. Looking forward to some great reading!
