TPP NEWS & PROGRAMS
Dear members and newsletter subscribers,
Thank you for reading our e-news and events, both TPP and in our community. Don’t hesitate to send suggestions for improvement; we never stop learning and adjusting.
Please remember to send us your event information at least 3 weeks in advance.
We need your help: Below you will find the EMBRY- RIDDLE-Aeronautical University survey, highlighted in green. We need at least 50 additional responders for results to be statistically valid.
That’s all from me this week. I look forward to seeing and talking with you in the coming weeks. Until then…
Bonnie
