**Topic: Retro and AMA**
For 2023 we're going to have a dual-meeting.
First we'll review what the previous year and look forward to the new year. Where can we improve? What can we learn? Who should we learn from? How can the IADNUG be part of your personal growth plan?

Next we'll host a “No Stupid Questions AMA (Ask Me Anything)” conversation.
If you are newer to the field and have a lot of questions, please bring them. Are you still looking for the best size for a token ring? Wondering how to deal with SOAP methods for scrubbing data? Still looking for that PEBKAC error? Wondering which JS framework you should avoid the most?

Our field is vast and we are always learning. Tap into the collective knowledge and experience of our community. Bring your questions, bring your answers, bring some spicy takes to trigger a little debate.

We will be in person with our great friends in their Source Allies office at 4501 NW Urbandale Dr, Urbandale, IA 50322.
