Message from Chapter President Chuck Baker - April 2018
To the new members for 2018, and all our past members, welcome to the President's Page for the Industrial Crescent Chapter. As of now, we have 22 new members that have joined in 2018. We continue to grow. That's because APICS is continually improving.
There are currently six individuals that are attending the CLTD class for certification. Chris Paulz is our main instructor, with me assisting as I can. We also have Tom Krupka teaching CSCP. Dawn Hill just finished teaching CPIM.
If you have ever wanted to get an APICS certification, please do so. Greenville Tech is our location for all the classroom instructions. Jennifer Moorefield is our POC at Greenville Tech. It's easy enough to contact her and let her know you are interested in attending the next upcoming classes starting in August. Jennifer's email address is jennifer.moorefield@gvltec.edu. There are funds available from the state to assist you in costs. Don't pass up this great opportunity to get a certification when adult learning funding is available.
We have our Top Management Night on 15 May. We start with an open bar at 6PM, dinner at 6:30. Our session will start at 7PM with Dick Ling as our Keynote Speaker. He will be talking about Adaptive S&OP and DDMRP. Let's just say that I will be learning much from him on his topic since I don't understand much of DDMRP.
The dinner meeting will celebrate our top company, our top instructor and our top volunteer. Come help us celebrate.
This dinner meeting is our last one of the year but it will be very special for all members. IF YOU ARE AN APICS MEMBER, bring your manager and it will be free to you and your manager. That's a savings of $50 for the two of you. This is a great opportunity to have your manager see what APICS is about. We want a large crowd there and the only way to do that is to make that date available on your calendar and join us for a great Professional Dinner Meeting (PDM). If the manager backs out at the last minute, sorry. It goes back to normal charges.
I will relinquish my responsibility as president on 30 June. Jeff Anderson, a long time APICS member, will be assuming the role of president. I will still be on the board assisting as I can.
Ali Snover, our Clemson Student Chapter President will be graduating in May. Her replacement will be Jacob Schneider. Jacob is a rising Senior in the Operations Management field from Rock Hill, SC. We wish Ali much success as she starts her career and welcome Jacob in assuming the role as Student Chapter President.
I look forward to seeing many of you at the May 15 Top Management Night PDM.
Thanks.
