Our Spring Book Club selection is Atomic Habits by James Clear. We will hold group discussion meetings over the lunch hour during the months of April and May (1 CPE credit per session attended).

Virtual | Zoom
Click here to register! This meeting is eligible for 3 CPE credits. Participants must attend the entire virtual meeting and answer all 9 polling questions, which will be launched shortly before 4:30 PM, to receive credit.
Membership Update
Our 2022 events are underway, and we’re looking forward to reconnecting in person at our first chapter meeting of the year on Thursday, February 17th! This hybrid meeting will be held at Rock Garden Conference Center in Green Bay. Join us in person or virtually via Zoom at this hybrid event.
Membership retention and recruitment is one of our biggest challenges since the arrival of the pandemic in early 2020. We need your referrals now more than ever! Our chapter has over 30 events planned this fiscal year. Some events are virtual only, others in-person only, and our chapter meetings offer both with a hybrid format. With these flexible event options, there are so many opportunities to learn, connect, and grow every year.

Events & Program Schedule Updates
Due to the increase in positive COVID cases nationally, and locally, the FEI Executive Committee decided to postpone our January 27, 2022, Member Appreciation Event until summer. The event will be held at Pullman's Restaurant from 4-7 PM, and a communication will be sent once the date is selected. Thank you for your patience as we reschedule this important event.
