SEMpdx-logoIn my tenure as Director of Events for SEMpdx, we’ve had some amazing speakers present at our monthly educational events. I’m going to list them all out, along with what they spoke about, but the real reason for this post is to ask YOU, our membership and the attendees of our events, who you liked, who you’d like to see speak again, and who we should invite to speak that hasn’t done a monthly event with us yet. Some topics you’d like to see would be helpful as well. These events are for YOU, after all!

Here’s all of the monthly events we’ve hosted since I joined the Board of Directors, along with the speakers and their employer/company at that time:

Please leave us a comment below with who you’d like to see present that’s not in the above list, who from the list you’d like us to bring back, and some topics you’d love to see added to the monthly educational event curriculum. And thanks for helping to shape the future of SEMpdx!
