Dear  ,

  

We started off our new program year with a great chapter meeting in September.  It was an evening meeting and we received a great deal of positive feedback.  And, because we received such great feedback our next evening chapter meeting will be held January 19, 2012.  Look for the announcement of the topic and speaker information closer to that date.

Our November chapter meeting, Turning Your Cyber Defense into a Winning Business Enablement Strategy, will he held on the 17th at our regular location - the DoubleTree Hotel - and at our regular time of 11:30am to 3:00pm.  Register for that event soon as seats will fill up quickly.

It's a busy time of year and we have several educational opportunities coming up:
  • Quarterly Training Event - PCI Compliance on November 9 & 10
  • CISA Review Course on November 11, 12, & 13
  • CISM Review Course on November 12 & 13
We hope to see you at these exceptional events.

Regards,


Gail P. Ricketts
President, ISACA Phoenix Chapter
