Dear
{EPFirstName},
You Wanted An e-PEGG -
You Got An e-PEGG
George Lee
Manager, Editorial Services
Here is APEGGA’s
first-ever electronic newsletter, the e-PEGG. This virtual publication
links to full Association stories, as well
as calendar and other information on the APEGGA website. The e-PEGG
is the outcome of a random mail-in survey last March, which suggested
nearly 80 per cent of members are interested in receiving an electronic
newsletter.
Towards
More Mobile Professions
APEGGA continues
its efforts to make the licensure approval system simpler when competent
and qualified professionals cross geographic
borders. The Association, however, needs the cooperation of other jurisdictions
for mobility to reach its fullest potential. A resolution passed at
the 14th annual Pacific NorthWest Economic Region Summit, over the
summer, represents exactly that kind of cooperation.
