IIMC staff continues to work daily, ascertaining that we are meeting our members' needs and ensuring there is continuity within the Organization. Staff continues to work full-time via a staggered schedule, splitting its time in the office and remotely as we slowly maneuver our way into having everyone safely back at headquarters. The timetable to return staff safely to a full office schedule is still in flux. Staff's safety and continuous service to our members are paramount. As of this E-Briefing, staff will continue to operate using a staggered schedule until it's safe to return everyone to work.
The Education Department has been working with Institutes and IIMC affiliated online companies to produce webinars and to provide complimentary and discounted online courses. Members who have certification points on file may still schedule appointments in available time slots to discuss reviewed certification applications and points received. Members can easily see the Education Department’s real-time availability and schedule an appointment at https://calendly.com/iimceducation.
The Membership Department continues to be at your service via email or phone calls.
If you have any questions, please contact staff or me. Thank you and stay safe.
