General Information
- The purpose of this training session is to provide information on the history of the section, guidance to section operations, support for leadership roles, and contacts to other section leaders in our South Texas network.
- A Town Hall Meeting will allow a leader from each section to report 5-10 minutes on the activities, challenges, success stories, and needs that their unit has experience over the last year, followed by a collaboration session.
- An officer breakout session will be offered for each group to have a meeting with the officers of their section to plan for the upcoming year and officially turnover duties to incoming officers.
The goal is to encourage networking, communication, participation, and support across all chapters of ASME South Texas.
