Barbara Donaldson
Chapter President

Dear Members and Friends of the Northern California Chapter,

As we enter the 2009 fiscal year, I look back on the many exceptional accomplishments of the Board of Directors and Committees in continuing to raise the bar on the level of engagement within our chapter; pertinent educational programs; exceptional networking events; and overall leadership as a significant chapter in the CoreNet Global family.

Our mission from 2008 continues… To enable career enhancement, professional development, educational and networking opportunities for our members.  In 2008 we established a strong foundation of tools and resources to ensure this coming year enables our team to continue to focus on this mission, and enrich our members’ experience.

I encourage you to get involved.   For some of you this may mean joining a committee, attending networking events, continuing your education towards MCR or SLCR certification, or attending monthly Chapter meetings and network with your peers.

Last year we kicked off the Annual Sponsorship Program and it was a tremendous success.   We continue this Program into 2009, and extend a big thank you to our sponsors as their commitment to the Chapter enables the exceptional programs and events we have all come to enjoy and appreciate.
