4)  Panel Business
     a) Are changes needed for any of the panel’s current descriptors and/or course approval criteria?
     b) Outstanding / ongoing topics from previous panel meeting(s)

The panel has wanted to revise the descriptions. There is an issue with the 913 and 914 descriptions not allow courses that combine the topics of both courses.  The panel is choosing to meet in-person this fall to do this work.  The panel will begin the work vía email. Carmen will pull some information together to a new course structure. The IAI team will discuss how some of this can be accomplished internally.

     c) Board / IAI Staff Updates regarding new system enhancements and/or initiatives
     d) Other discussion items from panel members
     e) Next meeting(s):
