A Message from
FSEA President
Karen Wiseman, EA, NTPI
Dear Members,

It is hard to believe as we enter the month of July, we are still in the 2019 filing season. It is the gift that keeps on giving!

Amid the chaos, your FSEA 2020/2021 Board of Directors were installed virtually last month. In addition to the board, we also welcomed several new members who are filling committee chair positions. A big thank you to all of you for stepping up to volunteer your valuable time and efforts.

During this year, the committees will be focusing on some of our more urgent issues. The Education Committee will be reviewing plans to provide CE credits to our members now that convention 2020 had to be cancelled. One focus area will be to assess the potential of working with chapters who are providing monthly CE on a virtual platform and bringing those sessions to the entire membership. We are optimistically planning on holding the practice management workshop in November as well as a 2-day live/virtual seminar in early December or January. The State Affiliates from across the country are sharing their successes and mistakes as we start rolling out these larger events in a new format. If you would like to work on this committee, please...
Laura Vensel, EA, NTPI
