Would your chapter like a technical speaker to teach for a day? NACHI has contracted with some of the very best in our industry. Their fees and expenses are completely paid for by NACHI so the local chapter need not worry about fundraising. Some speakers/trainers available include: Paul Abernathy Gerry Beaumont Bob Brown Kenny Hart Steve Jawitz Joe Tedesco Arrangements must be made 60 days in advance so that NACHI has plenty of time to get the word out. For more information contact [nick.gromicko@nachi.org](mailto:nick.gromicko@nachi.org) ---

Hi to all, Thanks Nick, many members particularly in Flordia have seen some of my presentations, but over the last 5 years I have written over 250 hours of inspector education covering: - Manufactured housing - Electrical - Structure - Exterior finishes (inc Stucco and EIFS) - Roofing - Plumbing (sorry Kenny) - HVAC - Environmental studies I am also currently developing courses on: - Commercial property inspection - New construction inspection - Moisture control in New construction I can also tailor classes to suit local conditions, and am happy to prepare specialized classes on just about most subjects apart from pools. I am currently taking bookings from mid April on Regards Gerry ---

NACHI member Russell Spriggs does a 1 hour talk/qa session on _Benefits of NACHI Membership, some you know about, others you don’t._ [NACHI.org](http://NACHI.org) is so big (175,000+ pages now) many members are not aware of all the tools and benefits that come with membership. For instance, only a small percentage of our members have taken advantage of our recent \*free websites to all members \*[http://www.inspectorpages.com](http://www.inspectorpages.com) Russell can give your chapter attendees a quick run down of all the ways to take advantage of your NACHI membership. He is best scheduled as an additional speaker at an evening event. ---

> [@dstaben](#): > > 🙂 Not a problem Gerry I think we need to have YOU for our guest speaker at the second Albuquerque Meeting Sure Dale, Just set up a training day for your next event and send me and the office the details. BTW, I suggest that the chapters charge for these events, maybe a nominal $50 per day for members and $100-150 per day for none members, one or two events per year would easily fund the chapters and enable them to bring in other speakers or fund other chapter activities.

Actually, I’m thrilled to be able to travel and represent NACHI! I remember the excitement I felt when Nick came out to talk as we created the Colorado chapter. I could see the excitement as, together, we met and greeted NACHI inspectors across the state as the Idaho chapter was formed last year. With NACHI growing at such an exponential rate, there is simply not enough “Nick” to go around - especially when he is working on RealMatcher® and other projects that will benefit NACHI inspectors for generations to come. By creating this group of Speakers and Ambassadors, the quality and education of each NACHI inspector will be enhanced, and new members will feel welcomed into our family! Russ ---
