Fantastic response so far. Here is an example of what is coming up or in the works… 1. Currently the NACHI National Chapter is working on a 2 hour interactive presentation and learning seminar on Indoor Air Quality, and HVAC - Steam Heating. Both presentations will be available to 25 to 30 individuals at a time. These presentations will be accomplished via internet. No special equipment or other periphials will be needed. All systems of connections whether dial-up or dsl, work with this new innovation. 1. INFO on demand… I have donated an IBM Telefax system to the Chapter. Any member of the National Chapter will be able to simply call this line and punch in an additional number to get a InfoFax sent to them automatically. Information/Tip Sheets you name it will be available. I believe it holds up to 99 different documents. More info to follow. (Caution: The machine hasn’t been hooked up in quite awhile, hopefully it still works). 2. An initial one time administration fee will be imposed to give the chapter a little operating fund. Does $5.00 sound all right to everyone? Stay tuned much, much, more coming. PS…There is no rule that says you can’t belong to more than one chapter. ---

This is such a great addition John! Having online classes like this will be a tremendous benefit to our members without a nearby chapter. Thanks for taking the educational benefits of NACHI even further and for finding a way to make the knowledge truly available to everyone! ---

Ron; You are in the area for the Chicago Chapter, aren’t you. Please excuse me if I am mistaken, but doesn’t this new National Chapter apply only to inspectors who are not near a regular chapter? If not, can I join? :mrgreen: ---

Hey everyone, Any NACHI member can join. There is no rule that stipulates that you can’t belong to more than one chapter. In fact, if you want to, you can join 100 chapters. The home office for the NACHI National Chapter will be operated from Elmira, NY. We have three coordinators at present. Myself, Rick Bates, and Jackie Young. Megan Boswell (NACHI Staff) and Mike Capalupo (President, NY FingerLakes Chapter) are also involved. For those interested a $5.00 Administration Fee is established. This fee will be applied towards our first on-line interactive training seminar in which Mr. Rick Bates is planned to be our first on-line instructor. Mr. Bates is already familiar with the system and has utilized it several times presenting his Indoor Air Quality seminars to Fortune 500 companys all over the US and Canada. For Schools, instructors, vendors, etc. that may be interested, please contact us for coordination. Any LOGO designers out there interested in preparing us a Logo? How about Strategic Planning? Anyone interested in attempting this daunting task for this Chapter.

Russ, Absolutely an industry “first”. The response is unbelievable (10 more processed this morning) and we haven’t even sent out an email announcing it yet. This is a benefit that will be bigger than the ADRS, & E&O Insurance Programs put together. 😃 😃 ---
