Need to order the lunch for the October seminar and will get with David Nash for hisinformation. Lori looking for a place to hold training, will need 8 people and Donna stated that she will get Betty Easley. Lori is getting a lot of feedback from younger procurement professionals on introduction classes. If you manage a contract of $100 thousand annually, you have to be certified but Florida does not have requirements. No one is pushing for the CPPB. We have a lot of questions on certification because Florida certification has changed.
Lori stated we need a topic for our August peer to peer discussion and suggested single or sole sources questions. The next Chapter meeting is August 12, 2014.
New Business
Donna stated the new point system for attendance in accordance with the newFCC certification requirements needs to be incorporated into the website. Sharita will complete the update to match the new requirements. We discussed the chapter meeting menus - Lori say meus have been selected and confirmed for August. Completed and discussed menus for November and December. It was suggested FSU Alumni Center as a great place for Reverse Trade Show and the Turnbull Center. Lori will get some quotes. We need to think about a place for Board meetings for 2015. We are ok at Panera for now.
