Hello Everyone

We the AMTA Pa Chapter board have spoken to many of you this year. Some regarding licensure, membership, education, and sharing personal stories. We all love the communication. We are a membership driven organization. What does that mean. We carry out the wishes of the membership as best we can. We the board need your input to do so. We send out surveys to gather your information and we ask questions at meetings, and keep you updated on things happening in the profession. If you are member reading this we look forward to more input. If you are a not currently a member we hope you will join us and be part of a fabulous group that is moving the profession forward and breaking new ground!

Your membership gives you access to continuing education at a reduced rate. You can attend and vote at your unit meetings. What is a unit, it is a smaller meeting and education where you can voice opinions, network with other therapists and gain CE. You can click on the unit page and see the unit that is nearest you. They are divided by counties, so look for yours and attend the meeting and education this year.

 

We the chapter board are preparing more education at our annual meeting and conference. If you have never attended a meeting this year looks to be awesome and with CE's being a requirement for our state where better to get them than in your own back yard! King of Prussia, Pa is the location this year. You can click on the activities tab for all the details. Remember you can also vote for your delegates who will be this years voice at National Convention. We also will elect new board officers and vote on several key items. Hope to see you at the annual meeting/conference at Double Tree hotel King of Prussia where you can learn more about your membership and gain CE for your licensure renewal.

 

All licenses issued will expire Jan 2013, so make sure you have all your CE's before the end of the year. We are gathering more details and will be discussing them at the annual meeting. We have some information posted on the government relations tab and you can click it right now to read it.

We want to let every one of you know what an honor it has been to serve you, and look forward to meeting you at the annual meeting! 

 

Sincerely,

Brenda Schuck

AMTA Pa Chapter President
