HQ RIO virtual IR Orientation 7-9 June open to all

To our Individual Reservists,
 
A three-day virtual orientation for IMAs and PIRR members will be held 7-9 June 2023.  In the past this three-day set of briefings was made available only to those who had joined the IMA component within the last year.  However, some who have been IMAs and PIRR longer than that still wish to attend these presentations.  We have opened the vIRO up to more people to attend if they’d like to sit in. 
 
Each day's agenda is below.  All times are MDT (Colorado). You are welcome to join using the ZoomGov link below from any device (government or personal, including cellphones).  You will not be on orders like the registered attendees, but if you’d like to receive IDT credit, you can work that out with your active component supervisor.
 
Wednesday and Thursday briefings are for all ranks. Friday's sessions are divided into officer and enlisted breakouts in the morning, and then join back together in a general session after the lunch break.
