As our section moves forward to electronic notification for our meeting announcements, we have an alternative method for PDH documentation and tracking. AWS Miami has a form you can download from your section tool kit. http://www.aws.org/w/a/sections/forms/index.html#PDH meeting attendance record You will be responsible to keep this form and bring it with you to each meeting. On this form you will fill out; date, location, topic, speaker’s name, PDH earned and the slot must be signed by the speaker or a section officer. Again, you will be responsible for keep-ing this form and bringing it to each meeting that meets the criteria to award a PDH. Feel free to ask questions of one of our section officers or at the registration table. For those of you who do not have printing capabilities we will have some extra copies for you. We look forward to seeing you at our events!
