Both courses will be held at the Hampton Inn at Arundel Mills. See our website for more details or email your questions/interest to education@asqbaltimore.org.
Section Mailing List
ASQ National is in the process of redesigning their membership database and the changes may impact you. One item is the email “preference” option which is being updated to allow you to customize the method with which you would like to be contacted. Until this feature is finalized, some of you that have requested NOT to get these section messages may see them in your inbox.
Additionally, new members that sign up to ASQ may not have their emails added to the local Section mailing list until after the beginning of the following month.
We believe this is a temporary situation and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Board Meetings
Come join us and see how your Section is managed. Volunteer opportunities are available (please contact a Board Member or info@asqbaltimore.org). Our next Board meeting will be February 21 and future ones are scheduled for Mar 20, Apr 17 and May 15.
Note: Our Board meetings are currently being held at Snyder’s. Enter the back, but proceed to the restaurant (not the Dinner meeting rooms) and ask for the room reserved for “ASQ”.
Programs – Bring-A-Book/Take-A-Book
“Bring a Book”/”Take a Book” is now offered at our upcoming Dinner meetings. If you have a quality- or business-related book that you no longer need (but might benefit a colleague) please bring it to the next Dinner meeting. Feel free to look over the books there and take one.
Membership Thanks
The ASQ Baltimore Membership committee wishes to thank you for your membership. Please contact us at membership@asqbaltimore.org if you have any questions, comments, suggestions, etc.
