2026 Holiday CHEER
The RIOA's year-end Holiday CHEER CE program is a staple in the Association's schedule each year. Join us for an end of year celebration as we unofficially kick off the Holiday Season with friends and colleagues!
EVENT IN DEVELOPMENT - ADDITIONAL DETAILS ANNOUNCED SOON

For years now the Holiday CHEER CE Dinner has been the unofficial start to the Holiday Season for many RIOA members. We will follow traditional Holiday CHEER formats and will begin with a reception followed by dinner and a first-class and timely CE lecture.
Maybe you need two more hours to satisify your license renewal requirements... or maybe not! Either way, the evening's a great way to get together with your friends and colleagues well before the hustle and bustle of the Season!
