WELCOME TO CSINext 2017 / 2018!

Hello everyone…where ever you may be I hope each and every one of you are having a great summer!  I cannot tell you how excited I am to be leading the Chapter this year.  And how much I am looking forward to working with the membership and an outstanding Board of Directors. This will be my third year working with the Chapter Board and I can truly say I have enjoyed every minute of it. Being President of the CSINext will be challenge but one I am looking forward to! 

For all of our new and returning members….Welcome to the new year for CSINext!

I will quickly update everyone on some exciting chapter news and what is in the works for the 2017 / 2018 year before we really get rolling in September. So everyone can get back to enjoying summer activities…..here we go:

Chapter Membership - is UP and we are GROWING!  Our chapter grew by over 20% last year!  Our membership now spans 23 different states and 3 countries.  How cool is that?  We are very excited to have new members in the CSINext family.  WELCOME!

Monthly Chapter Programs – many exciting programs in store for this year.  Facility Commissioning,  BIM-Linking 3D Components & Project Schedules, Mind of the Specifier, in addition to presentations from our Chapter Sponsors are just few of the topics being finalized as we speak.  All meetings are at 12 Noon – EST US.  Keep an eye out for the schedule!

CONSTRUCT 2017 – September 13th-15th 2017 in Providence, RI.  I know I am excited to be attending again this year, getting to see old friends, making new ones, and taking in all of the activities.  The slate of educational sessions this year is plentiful so don’t miss out!  And….(drum roll please)…..our own Chapter Treasurer—Daniel Hargreaves—has been chosen to present “The Accessible Restroom: Why Doesn’t the ADA Just Give Me the Solution”.  Congratulations on being a selected speaker Daniel!  If you have never met Daniel or heard him speak make sure you don’t miss it!

CSINext Meet-N-Greet – the CSINext Chapter will have another “chapter meet-n-greet” at the CSI Booth this year during CONSTRUCT.  Stop by and meet your Chapter Board, meet other chapter members, and receive a special surprise!  Keep an eye out for the date and time!

CSIRESOURCES.ORG – the new institute website is up and running. Join a community practice group, join a discussion, view webinars, and interact with other institute members.  It is all one click away at http://www.csiresources.org

Fall Certification – Registration for the fall testing window is now open. The fall testing window is September 25 – December 10, 2017.  CSI Certifications allow you to develop and expand your professional knowledge and designate you as a true industry professional.  For more information about what certifications are offered and their requirements, please visit https://www.csiresources.org/certification/csi-certification

Well, I went on a little longer than I had planned but there is just so much to cover about what is in progress and coming up this year I did not want to leave anything out.  Questions, ideas, etc.?  Please feel free to reach out to the Board of Directors or myself, we are always here for you! Here is to everyone having a great rest of the summer!

Keep an eye out for more Chapter updates in August!
