[Athen] professional development

[E.A. Draffan]

My Ralphie was sulking on his bookcase behind my desk along with my smart
conference plaque and I was not even there to congratulate Saroj! I really
missed you all and the event, so am looking forward to more blogs on the
subjects that were covered. 

As I said to Dann - happy to help where I can on one of these new
committees!  CPD may be a bit difficult from across the pond but we are
looking at what sort of MSc is needed for computer scientists who wish to
take up Assistive Technology as a profession! The core modules and type of
support mechanisms etc. 
Best wishes E.A.

Hi Dann,

I agree wholeheartedly with the enthusiasm you have conveyed about our AHG
conference!! It was my very first time at AHG, and by far the best among
the number of different ones I have attended in the past 5 years as far as
training and general knowledge/expertise is concerned.

What a great body of knowledge we have amongst us!

BTW, Ron and I agreed to co-chair the professional development committee.
We will be searching out a few more members to round out the knowledge base
for us.

Blessings in abundance,

Wink
