PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE |
|
Happy New Year to All. As we enter 2009, RDHs' tend to begin counting CEU's and plotting the next 12 months! We have planned 4 hours of continued education between February and April plus a 4 credit Spring Seminar...details to follow. This is one third of the requirements! Of course, their will be more to come in the Fall. My hope for everyone is gainful employment in a trying economy. Please use GODHA as an aid in employment, it is a BENEFIT of MEMBERSHIP. We are here to help. See you all in February.
Kae Sylvia, RDH
