Dear Chapter Members,
Can you see the light at the end of the tunnel? With the introduction of the COVID-19 vaccines and the upcoming Spring Season, healthier and warmer days are coming our way. I encourage you to stay positive and focused on better days coming our way.
As we prepare for the Chapter board transition, I am pleased to announce that the Chapter is in a strong financial position which is due to a number of embedded efficiencies across our operation. Over the last year, the Chapter fostered new partnerships, identified alternative topics aligning to the current environment, and strategically enhanced our operations. We will continue to expand programming, introduce new initiatives, increase the number of events, and expand our certification training efforts throughout this year and beyond. Take a look at the other sections of this newsletter to learn more about upcoming Membership, SheLeads Tech, Emerging Professionals and Corporate Relations events. You also find new educational classes and a host of certification prep courses to choose from. Don’t miss the information under the Academic Relations section regarding our student competition.
