Education is one our three primary purposes. Our educational activities are geared toward the members themselves. In order to promote communication and information sharing between members, the council engages in quarterly meetings where, as part of the standard program, roundtable discussions are held on topics that are of current relevance to the members. In many cases, at these same meetings a seminar with appropriate guest speakers is planned in order to address the educational objectives or our organization. The council activities center around the previously mentioned three primary objectives.
All organizations have a slightly different purpose or focus.
However, another equally important characteristic which distinguishes us is that one of our primary goals is to contribute to the community and provide a vehicle for public service. Our membership standards are proprietary and determined by our directors. Generally speaking, we are looking for individuals who can demonstrate the requisite experience, competence and ethics within their respective fields, and additionally, have a desire to utilize their skills in a manner that will improve the community and the profession.
