Our Whistler conference which included WoodTALKS, the GBM, and related programs is now firmly in the rear view mirror and following that busy event, yours truly took a couple of weeks off for a little R&R. Now, we are now fully fixated on the next 5 months with organizing and implementing lunch & learn sessions, factory tours, and at least one very special event.

Historically, October is the beginning or our busiest season for specifier events and this October is no exception. The month is now fully booked with lunch & learn sessions and we expect this trend to continue through to the middle of December.

So far this year, 19 BC manufacturing companies are involved in the Specifiers Program, with an increasing number offering 30 minute sessions. This allows us to present two participating companies at one, one-hour lunch & learn! There is still an opportunity for another 1 or 2 companies to join this group this year. If you are not sure if this program is right for your company, we would be pleased to have one of your representatives sit in on one of our sessions to see if this would be a fit for you. As well as organizing and implementing all specifier activities, we also assist, as needed, in the development of the presentations to ensure they are effective, and that they meet the criteria for educational sessions.

Should you wish additional information on any of the foregoing, please contact me at rmanion@bcwood.com or call me at the office: (604) 882-7100.
