June 2013 VCI-Group President’s
Message
By now you would have received several messages from us
regarding the upcoming conference. This
year we will not be conducting a conference in October as we have in the past,
due to the increasing cost of these events.
Throughout this year we have been communicating that we
are in the process of transforming the organization and our focus has been on
providing you with quality, relevant educational sessions inexpensively. Last week’s VCI-Group Newsletter referenced a
couple of webinars that we are hosting; as well as, the focus of our Distance
Learning and HealthCare SIGs (Special Interest Groups). Likewise if you visit the Events section of
our website; http://www.vci-group.org/events/industry-events.aspx
you will see what other conferences and webinars are available to you
throughout the industry and what VCI-Group discounts are available.
We are in negotiations with several other organizations
that host conferences and may be doing a partnership with one or two of them in
the near future. We are also working
with some of the large manufacturers in the industry to see about hosting an
event in some of the large metropolitan cities throughout the country; and,
potentially doing a virtual meeting.
We understand that one of the benefits of being a
VCI-Group member is the networking and “catch up” we do annually with our peers
throughout the world, country and industry.
In the meantime, please take advantage of meeting
virtually, through social media and at the various educational events that we
will be conducting throughout the year. We
especially want to encourage you participate in our Special Interest Groups and
listserv conversations that enable direct interaction with your peers on issues
that matter to you. One of the benefits
of being a VCI-Group member is that you are never alone.
Toni Alonso
President, VCI-Group
