To our wonderful VIC-TAS Chapter Members …\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Together with the VIC-TAS Committee, it brings me immense joy to extend a warm welcome to the commencement of 2024. <\/span><\/p>\n

I am thrilled to introduce the VIC-TAS Committee to you (see full image below). In particular, I am excited to welcome five new Committee members to our Chapter Committee this year. Their expertise and dedication will undoubtedly enrich our endeavours in advancing our industry. As we plan the Chapters’ Professional Development and Networking opportunities for the year ahead, we eagerly anticipate the unique perspectives and contributions each member will bring to the table.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The VIC-TAS Committee is working hard to deliver events that offer invaluable opportunities for networking, learning, and collaboration. We are currently putting together a calendar which includes workshops featuring industry experts, and fabulous networking opportunities, and it is our hope there will be something for everyone eager to deepen their involvement and impact within the VIC-TAS community.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At the events already held this year, it has been lovely to chat with both new and current members, both at the recent Welcome drinks at Kooyong and the Coffee catchups in Tassie. We extend our heartfelt thanks to our Sponsor, Alastair Troedel and the team at Eastern Press<\/a><\/strong>, for their generous sponsorship at the welcome event.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

An event that we are eagerly anticipating is the highly awaited Empowering Success International Conference<\/a><\/strong>, scheduled to take place in September this year. This flagship event serves as a cornerstone of our efforts to foster global connections and exchange innovative ideas. With an impressive lineup of speakers and thought-provoking sessions, the conference promises to be a transformative experience for all involved. Further details regarding our Chapter catch-up dinner at the International Conference will be advertised in the coming months.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The success of the VIC-TAS Chapter would not be possible without the generous support of our Chapter and Strategic Sponsors, whose unwavering commitment fuels our initiatives and propels us toward our goals. A special shoutout to our new Partners, Spectrum Analysis<\/a>,<\/strong> our VIC\/TAS Chapter Sponsor for 2024, Eastern Press<\/a><\/strong> our Event Sponsor and My World Jewellery<\/a><\/strong> as a Promotional Sponsor.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Recently, the VIC-TAS Committee hosted a Supplier\/Partner Networking event, which recognised both current and potential suppliers\/partners. This gathering offered a prime opportunity for networking among suppliers, committee members, and other stakeholders, gave us the opportunity to express our gratitude for the invaluable contributions and steadfast support provided by suppliers to Victorian schools.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As we look forward to the exciting opportunities for 2024, let us reaffirm our shared commitment to advancing the VIC-TAS Chapter and empowering individuals and communities. Together, we have the power to make a profound and lasting impact.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As Chapter President, I eagerly anticipate meeting you at our planned events. Please take a moment to introduce yourself to me; I am enthusiastic about engaging with you and hearing about your needs and expectations as members of our valued Chapter.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for your continued dedication and support.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Warm regards,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
