Hi Katie, Your point is very well taken -- a week's notice isn't very much time, I agree. I posted the information as soon as I received it, and Premier Health has included it in their newsletter, which has quite a large distribution; but certainly not everyone gets their newsletter. I did post notice of the workshop on John C's Events site, but not everyone has access to the net, so it's not helpful to all listmembers. I will pass on your thoughts to the conference organizers, so that they can take this into consideration when planning future events. Thank you for taking the time to voice your opinion -- Best regards, Kathrynne [log in to unmask] wrote: > > Kathrynne, > > Thank you for the notice of the Florida Hospital seminar.
