From the old Sonny and Cher song, "The Beat Goes On….. as we establish our upcoming educational Forms Institutes.
For 2009, the Fall Forms Institute will be in Chicago in early October. Let me tell you about our in-progresss plans for our BFMA Forms Institutes in 2010.
We have a very enthusiastic group in Western Canada. Tami Hayes at the Ministry of Health has taken the lead in Victoria, BC and has a room lined up for March 15 and 16, 2010. Tami has attended our institutes in Langley and Surrey BC and is very enthusiastic. In Eastern Canada, Bet Morash and Julie Stephens have been looking for a place in Toronto. There are some initial negotiations for space in downtown Toronto at this time. Just waiting for final approval for a room and a time frame in April of next year. Once that is completed, you will be able to mark your calendars. Contact has been made with the Washington, DC members to be on a lookout for space for a Forms Institute next spring. Date coordination with next year’s symposium is under consideration at this time, so the time frame is still open. If you can obtain a room that holds 50 people with electronic hookup capability in the DC area, please contact me at bhill73@comcast.net. We always encourage you to come to the BFMA Symposium for forms education. With the Institutes, BFMA comes to you for forms education. I encourage you to take advantage of both venues. But if you can’t make it to Symposium, please support the nearest Institute, as you will still add to your education and knowledge.
