More and more chapters and regions are offering EASA’s valuable seminars on a “private” basis.

Chapters and regions have found that by offering these programs at their meetings, they can increase member participation in their events and provide a valuable service to members. These programs also help fulfill Governing Policy 19’s requirement for chapters to hold at least one technical and/or edu-cational training meeting annually (although EASA seminars are not required to do so).

Most of EASA’s seminars are available to chap-ters, regions and individual members as well. See the enclosed form for a list of seminars, fees and other requirements.

For information on scheduling an EASA seminar, please contact Meetings & Expositions Manager Dale Shuter at EASA Headquarters ([email protected]).
