2024 has started off strong for your IMA chapter and the momentum continues beyond January!

First, if you are interested in joining the chapter board (in any size capacity) for the upcoming IMA fiscal year (beginning July 1), we are now assembling our volunteer leader ballot for a vote at the March meeting.  If you have as little as 1 hour per month, we can find you a role that plays to your strengths and schedule.  Please contact the chapter to express your interest:  SanAntonioIMA@gmail.com. 

Second, save the date – Saturday, March 23rd (in the morning) – for our 2nd ever Habitat for Humanity service project.  This is a joint project with the San Antonio CPA Society's Members in Business & Industry group.  We will also invite accounting students from area universities.  Breakfast tacos, coffee, OJ and water will be provided.  Details will be posted to the chapter home page in the next week, but for now add it to your calendar. 

Third, we have 3 fantastic February events.  You can register for each on the chapter home page: https://SanAntonio.IMAnet.org.

• Tuesday, Feb 20th (5-6:15pm CT) 100% Virtual – 1.5 hours of CPE.  Joint meeting with the Hartford CT and the Eastern CT chapters.  Board member Mike Lovelace, CMA, will present "How to Present Data Meaningfully and Accurately."
    
• Wednesday, Feb 21st (5:30-8pm CT) Hybrid – 2.0 hours of CPE.  "Lease Accounting Compliance – What's Involved?" and "Using DISC Personality Tools to Enhance Business Performance & Employee Engagement" by returning speaker Debbie Rodgers.  This will also be Faculty Appreciation Night – a chance to celebrate our many academic members who work with students and promote IMA to future members!
• Tuesday, Feb 27th (12-1pm CT) 100% Virtual – 1.0 hours of CPE.  Back by popular demand!  Board member Brian Butler, will present "Intermediate Excel Tips & Tricks."  (This will be a joint web offering with our annual sponsor – MGR Accounting Recruiters.)

As always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the chapter.

See you next month!
