President’s Message
Happy New Year!
How quickly 2015 seemed to pass.
With a new year upon us I am writing my first President’s Message for
the best FPA chapter in America. I feel
privileged and a bit overwhelmed with the task of President but with the
assistance of a fantastic Board, Past Presidents and the always reliable Peggy
Nelson, I am sure to keep the ship sailing in the right direction.
Please join me in thanking Ken Robinson for serving as
President in 2015 and Chairman in 2016 the next time you see him at a chapter
meeting. I have big shoes to fill.
As always we start the year off with some outstanding
meetings. Our annual Winter Symposium
will be held Friday, January 22 at the Dulles Hyatt. If you need Ethics credits for your CFP® this
will be available before the Symposium from 6:30-8:30am. Keep an eye out for regular emails containing
details and bios of the Symposium speakers.
This year’s attendees will receive 6 CE credits for CFP®, CIMA, MD and
VA Insurance, pending approval.
The 3rd Annual Career Day will be held on
February 19, 2016 at the Dulles Hyatt. The
career fair is an excellent opportunity for hiring an intern or associate
advisor. The Career Day allows you to
interview multiple candidates from colleges and universities on the east coast
as well some career changers with great experience. If you are not in need of a new hire, the
Career Day will also offer a Luncheon with two outstanding speakers, Dave Yeske
and Elissa Buie. They will be discussing Career Paths, Internships and
Residency Programs.
In the New Year, please join us for one or both of our
two scheduled Happy Hours on January 8 at Chima
Restaurant in Tysons, and on January 22 following the Symposium at the Dulles
Hyatt. These events provide a great opportunity to network, meet our Board
members, and enjoy the opportunity to “Sip and Share” your favorite drinks
while sharing your best business tips!
Registration is open now for all events at http://www.fpanca.org/events/event_list.asp.
