Dear Escrow Warriors,
As we continue to strive for growth and education, I am pleased to say the year has gotten off to a fantastic start for Escrow Associates of San Gabriel Valley.
Both our January and February meeting were well attended. How has your office been doing with the new withholding process? I would love to hear your feedback. Please email me. I think the dialogue was productive and it was comforting to know some of our feedback about the new form and process was resonating with other associations as well.
The PD classes we hosted in February drew interest, including some who attended from other regions. I am excited to receive the results of the March 7 exam we held in Pasadena! If you are considering starting your journey towards professional designation, here is a link to this year’s test dates:
https://www.ceaescrow.org/docs/PD_Exam_Schedule.pdf.
Check back often as the calendar is updated regularly. The mentor program continues, so if you are planning to test, there is an opportunity to receive guidance.
It is my hope that you will join me at the American Escrow Association conference in June in the Phoenix area. It will be held June 11-13 at the fabulously modern Mountain Shadows Resort. It will be a great opportunity to learn and meet escrow professionals from other states. We will be sponsoring 2 delegates for this meeting. Please see the delegate information in this newsletter. It is my hope you will answer the call to serve your fellow members and represent EASGV at this enriching event.
Lastly, it is my goal to create in an enriching program for all our members so that we may continue to grow and prosper. If there is a topic that would help you on your desk, please email me. I want to know what you are seeing on your desk and how we can help. It is my belief that by committing ourselves to consistent continuing education we can provide our valued clients with service excellence while growing our practice expertise.
Together in education,
