February 6, 2010-Gordon Coombes-Training Summit planning for 2010-2011

all members to attend the February 3rd PPIAC meeting. In lieu of the traditional speaker, I will be facilitating a first of its kind  PPIAC Training Summit. This will be a time for all members, new and old, to come and give their input into the types of training topics that they would like to see covered over the next two years. As we all know, the Private Investigation field is very vast and involves many different specialties. Additionally, the level of experience differs greatly throughout the membership. My goal and VP of training, is to offer training that is valuable and educational to all of our membership. I cannot do this alone and am calling upon each of you to come and share your input, experience and opinions.

 

We will be discussing training topics for the monthly meetings. New quarterly trainings that PPIAC will be hosting as well as the PPIAC Conference coming up this fall. This will be a chance for the membership to become involved and help guide the valuable training that PPIAC provides. So please come out and get involved

 

I am looking forward to a big turnout on February 3rd. See you all then
