The ACPE Board of Representatives met for its Fall meeting at the Sheraton-Gateway Hotel in Atlanta.  The Board's meeting time was a day shorter than meetings in prior years, as the board sought ways to reduce expenses during the current fiscal year.  (The Accreditation and Certification Commissions met as scheduled, with reduced schedules where possible.  The Professional Ethics Commission and the Standards Committee did not have a face-to-face meeting this fall, in an effort to reduce expenses.)
