APWU OF FLORIDA SPRING SEMINAR IN JACKSONVILLE, FL MARCH 10-14, 2011

APWU of Florida 2011 Spring Seminar

On Wednesday, March 9th, 2011, the Florida State Retirees meeting will be held in the Crowne Plaza Jacksonville Riverfront Hotel. Please give President Mario Miceli help in getting the word out and encourage your local retirees to attend.

We have the schedule for the 2011 Spring Seminar available now. It will be held at the Crowne Plaza Jacksonville Riverfront, March 10th to 12th, 2011. The Secretary / Treasurer Training Conference will be held in conjunction with the Spring Seminar. This will consist of Beginner QuickBooks training on March 10th followed by Advanced QuickBooks training on the 11th and 12th.

The Secretary / Treasurers Training will be on the 13th and 14th. I would like to thank President Doris Orr-Richardson and the Northeast Florida Area Local in advance for hosting this Seminar. Without the participation of our Local Presidents my job as Director of Education would much harder.

This schedule has been planned to be a well rounded and informative series of classes that will have something for everyone. We have attempted to incorporate some of the changes the Local Presidents suggested in this Seminar. No matter what your experience level is as a Steward or Local Officer we have attempted to have a class that you can learn from.

The National Officers in attendance will be addressing your concerns and those of your Local members. The State Craft Directors, as always, are eager to assist you in any way they can.

I have had outstanding support from our Local Presidents ranging from ideas for classes to volunteers to actually teach a class. I would like to take this opportunity to thank them and encourage others to become active in this area.

The Seminars are designed to provide you with the tools you will need to make your job defending the rights of your members easier. We must have your input on classes that are on point for what you need in the immediate future. I will continue to attempt to fill those needs as I become aware of them.

On March 9th, 2011, the Florida Presidents Conference will hold their meeting to network and discuss local issues around the State.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have needs or concerns that I could address.
