Hi Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday with your families and are back refreshed and eager to continue the incredible work you do with all our students and clients! In anticipation of the next International AER Board meeting this weekend, I am wondering if you have any news from across the country that you would like me to share with the board. Would love to hear about special projects, success stories or any concerns that you may have. You can contact me at my new email address: carolewilliams2017@gmail.com Thanks everyone!

Hi everyone: We have just concluded the first part of our board meeting this evening and I have a couple questions for our O & M's across Canada. We have had some discussion regarding Liability Insurance for O & M Specialists. I want to ensure that the needs of the Canadian O & Mers are taken into consideration and that when we look at organizations who may be able to provide Liability Insurance, that coverage will also be available to our members north of the border! So my questions to you all are.... 1. Do you presently carry liability insurance? 2. If yes, what company do you use? Can you provide details regarding this insurance? 3. Do you feel this coverage is adequate? 4. Do you believe that this is an important member benefit that should be offered by AER to the Canadian members? Thank you all for your input and I will share with you, the feedback that I receive.
