In the event that you have not submitted your report within the 3 weeks, then the Secretary will send you an email reminding you to submit your report and allow you a one (1) week extension. In the event that you do not submit your delegates report, you would lose privileges for 30 days, following the submission of your report, of any upcoming training or conferences. By not complying to these guidelines, an Executive member may ask you to provide a response to members questions about your failure to submit your delegates report. Copies of all delegates’ reports will be available at the next General Membership Meeting.  

It is important to note that if you have exceeded the allotted 4 weeks, without submitting your delegate report, you will be unable to attend any future
training, education, or conferences 30 days from the date of your report submission.
