The IAPSC is quietly active in the security industry and having a positive influence wherever we go. Upcoming events include:
- ASIS Successful Security Consulting training in Atlanta. This has been a successful event in generating revenues for the IAPSC, which is particularly important this year as we are working hard to finish the year with a balanced budget.
- Secured Cities in Baltimore where IAPSC will have a booth featuring our website and volunteers who will be teaching end users how to find consultants on the IAPSC web site. I continue to look for a volunteer to facilitate a panel session to teach end users why, how and when to hire a security consultant. Thanks to Jim Clark for volunteering to facilitate the booth staffing throughout this short event
- ISC East in New York – Where the IAPSC will once again hold an abridged Successful Security Consulting training course.
- Multiple initiatives with the Security Industry Association (SIA) relative to updating IPASC/SIA AutoCAD symbols as well as looking at an update for CSI security division specifications.
At ASIS, the Board of Directors is going to be presented with some new and exciting planned measures for the IAPSC for 2015:
- Enhancements for the website to help end users find IAPSC consultants and to enhance the stability and resiliency of the site
- A budget with a positive bottom line for 2015
- An expanded Successful Security Consulting program which for the first time ever will be held outside of the standard ASIS/ISC venues
Our committees are very active right now and I appreciate all of the work that everyone is doing.
Best wishes for a successful ASIS show,
