  • August 2019 Chapter Update

    Are you a CMA candidate?   Considering whether to use either Gleim or Wiley or some other support program to help earn the CMA?   Did you know that as an active Seattle chapter member you could get a 25% discount off the Gleim CMA materials?   Admittedly I did not and thus personally did not get 25% off when I used the Gleim materials for my CMA prep.   I only found out Seattle chapter members have this discount option at ACE in June, so... if you are considering the Gleim CMA prep series be sure to contact seattle@imachapter.org OR better yet email Alexandra Graham  at professor.relations@gleim.com and let her know you are a Seattle IMA chapter member.   Of course, if IMA members are aware of other prep material discounts with other providers please email the Board at seattle@imachapter.org so we can share those too.

    If you have not already signed up for the next event of IMA interest please review/register at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/launching-lean-thoughtfully-monthly-fbod-lean-tour-king-county-tickets-59407474355.   Please note this is not an IMA event, although many of us are attending to learn about LEAN and to enjoy lunch together for networking and sharing after this unique experience.

    Be sure to reserve October 18th on your calendar as well.   We are finalizing plans for a 3-hour lunch and CPE event including those CMA required two (2) hours of ethics CPE.  More coming very soon, so here's the heads up to start setting those work schedules to accommodate this 12noon to about 5pm event in Woodinville.  Hopefully most CMAs and CMA candidates will get this time off from work as professional development/CPE training time and not have to use personal PTO.  Be sure to share with your employer the importance of these community learning experience as part of professional development so we can see you at these events without burning PTO.
