Hi everyone! For those of you that came to the Annual Meeting last weekend, I have posted the CEUs on your transcripts and have sent certificates to those who requested them. There is a CEU that is missing due to a technical glitch, and I am working with the national office to take care of this. I will post the last CEU as soon as I am able.

Thanks!--Jeanette Tyler
