Remember that Karl Weigers is scheduled Monday, April 11th (TOMORROW) to present at 6 PM. Karl is a frequent speaker at international software conferences and professional society meetings.

Now is the time to join a local IIBA Certification Study Group. We are pulling together individuals in the Boise area who are looking for motivation to complete the CCBA or CBAP application and take the exam this early fall. Ideally we are looking for 6 to 8 committed folks to support each other. We want to start the group as soon as possible. Please contact TJ O'Brien for more information at [email protected].

It is not enough just being a member of a professional group. You need to be active. You need to participate. You need to be supportive. Without active members the leadership group has no one to lead. There is no reason to post to social media. There is no reward for all the hard work to locate and book quality presenters. If you ARE a IIBA member, come to the events, volunteer for a committee, or even offer to present at a chapter meeting. If you are NOT a IIBA member, you are missing out on opportunities to meet new people, chat with old friends, learn new techniques, or share your insights. We would love to see you and build some great memories. Join us at www.WesternIdaho.iiba.org.
