Chapter Meetings

Chapter Meetings for Members

The Chapter Meetings are held during the Chapter Study Days and are an opportunity for members to hear feedback from the President, who attends the monthly teleconferences of the National Committee Meetings, and to hear feedback from the regular Chapter Committee Meetings, as well as to provide feedback, ask questions and discuss issues. 

Chapter Annual General Meeting for Members

The Chapter Annual General Meeting (AGM) is being held during the November Chapter Study Day.  Chapter Committee Members are elected, future plans are discussed and member’s input is valued to help develop the Chapter.  We are always looking for people interested in becoming involved in the Chapter.  Each position and portfolio have more than one person involved so there is always support available.  We understand that these are voluntary positions, so any input is welcome.  (This can be included as part of your Continuing Professional Development hours.)
