Re: Convention?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm very hesitant to offer state approved courses at any of our conventions. I avoided approved education last year and, like other years, the unapproved courses are the most popular by far. NACHI Convention 2007 Photos | Member-Submitted Photos Let's face it, it doesn't make sense to travel all the way to a convention to re-learn plumbing 101 again.

The 2008 Convention will be no different with courses in business success, mold, infrared cameras, SEO, limiting liability, commercial inspections, marketing, green building, MoveInCertified, website critiquing, etc.

These types of course are generally (with a few exceptions, we got our commercial inspection course approved in Texas and our Infrared course approved in IL) NOT approved by states for continuing education due to the fact that they are far outside the Standards of Practice.

... and that is exactly why I like them... and that is exactly why they are so popular... and that is exactly why we'll be offering them (instead of plumbing 101 courses) at our Conventions again.

Our conventions are cutting edge, exciting and offer stuff you simply can't get anywhere else.
