Virginia Chapter

Doug stated,
"My IPMA-CP training
at the Southern
Region
Conference in
1998 played a
significant role
in showing me
exactly how to
be "strategic".
The training was
five consecutive
days of non-stop
new ideas and
better ways to
accomplish HR
tasks - all from
government folks
who had been
doing these
things! I
really do have
IPMA to thank
for such
excellent
training - and
inspiration."
Congratulations
Doug!
