WOW! Who can believe that it’s already 2018?

CMAA-SAC wrapped up 2017 with some great programs to include the October program on Trends in Technology in the marketplace and the November program that happened just before the Hartsfield Airport power outage –which was on Mission Critical: Its Not Just About Data Centers. Timely? I’d say so. That’s our goal. CMAA-SAC strives to provide programs that make each of us better in our roles in the AEC industry, as well as delivering more opportunities for success for our firms.

We kickoff January with two of our most popular programs. First, our breakfast program, The Owners’ RoundTable. This event is our largest program of the year and always sells out. Make sure you join us to meet with various agency and private owners that will help you navigate how to work with their organizations.

To wrap up the month – we close it out with our Owners’ Social. This provides our members and prospective members an opportunity to network with Owners and industry partners in a low key social atmosphere.Here is a sneak peek of what’s to come.

February will be focused on K-12. Come learn what legislative changes may impact the AEC industry and hear from multiple school system representatives as they share their selection processes and projects they have on the horizon.

In March, our breakfast program is, Generation Integration. With multiple generations in the current workforce, hear some perspectives to help be more successful working in a multi-generation environment.

Each month we provide Lunch and Learns, which provide introductions to the latest products and/or trends in the industry. And of course, go ahead and mark your calendars for the Annual Birdies, Burgers & Beers Golf Tournament, May 7th.

With the addition of the CMAA-SAC Scholarship Foundation, our events now help to support the scholarship fund. On the registration pages, you can now find a place to add a donation in addition to your registration fee. Please think about supporting the growth of the CMAA-SAC Scholarship Foundation.

Our Chapter is experiencing tremendous membership growth, and we are working hard to add value to your CMAA membership. The best way for you to get added value is to get more involved; become a member; attend the programs; sponsor programs or events. We look forward to providing stimulating programs, superior events and expanding our membership.

For CMAA South Atlantic Chapter’s January Breakfast Program, we will be joined by many Owners from our local A/E/C industry who are in positions to procure CM and other professional consulting services. On January 4th, CMAA-SAC will open registration for our annual Owners’ Roundtable event which allows participants to meet and converse with Owner representatives in a “speed dating” style format.

Each Owner will provide an overview of his/her respective organization, offer insight as to how to do business with the organization and share a project outlook for 2018. This annual program is a can’t-miss event for anyone looking to expand their business connections and gain further knowledge of multiple market sectors. Attendees will be able to get up close with some of the state’s most influential Owners and ask questions in a relaxed atmosphere.

While registering for this event, attendees will be asked to rank the Owners with whom they wish to visit during the program. While registrants may not get the opportunity to meet with each of their top ranked Owners, CMAA-SAC will make every effort to ensure the majority of requests are fulfilled.
