March Meeting Presentations

March 10, 2010 by Webmaster · Comments Off
Filed under: Events 

Due to a mix up with the equipment that is normally brought to the meetings, the tutorial was performed without the projector, and the Presentation started late due to the projector set-up.

I wish to apologize for this and let the membership know that the Section has worked to rectify the situation.

Correction: Mad scramble to borrow a projector to make it in time for the Presentation.

Corrective Action: Arranged to have a back-up projector available by one of our Board members.

Preventive Action: (don’t get me started on this :-) )

Thank you for your patience.

The presentations for the March Meeting are located on the Services » Past Presentations page.

Eric Finegan, Secretary, Webmaster.
