We’re wanting to streamline our communications, limit the number of times we contact you about similar things, and coordinate our planning better. So for the 2009 budgeting cycle — meaning, all the planning and scheduling we’ll be doing in the months ahead — we plan to compile all the local association co-sponsorship opportunities into ONE request packet with a menu of options.
That means, as we look forward to next year, you’ll have the opportunity to request GRI modules, Professional Standards Roadshows, visits by Lem, commercial, appraisal or property management education, and other designation courses such as CRS, CCIM and RLI…all at the same time.
We think this will give you a better idea of the variety of co-sponsorship opportunities that are available, and we can consolidate our efforts and get plans made earlier and more efficiently. Look for this correspondence from the Professional Development Group as we move in to budget planning – sometime in early May, I suspect.
