MISSISSIPPI PDH WORKSHOP

I might have to come down for the afternoon sessions. Might be a good road trip for me and the wife.

It would be good to finally meet you in person

Now THAT would be fun!! Check their FaceBook page. Their costs and hours are down a bit.
You mat get a second shot. I'm working with the Carlson folks for a training seminar later this year that Benchmark Engineering and Surveying will sponsor.
We are looking at a one, or possibly 2 day seminar, but I don't think it will be as inexpensive as this one.
After that we are trying to get That CAD Girl down for a training session. After that, maybe Rick Ellis. It's been too long of a dry spell in this area on training. We are going to try to fix that. Once setup we will offer trading classes, configuration services and creating Field to Finish custom setups to meet the client's needs.

TTT

I'm totally self taught, on acad. (carlson) I have very little schooling.

I'd love to come, and take a course. It is a bit far.

N

Arkansas far??? Nooooo!! I drive up there to visit in-laws and out-laws every now and then. Not too bad of a drive. Come on down and stay at the Holiday Inn at Trustmark Park in Pearl, Ms. Google that site. You can send the spouse to the State;s Largest Discount Mall while you go to Bass Pro shop.
If we can put the Benchmark session together, it will probably be held there.
Come on down. Spend the night. Take in a Mississippi Braves Game!! AND really GOOD restaurants very close by!!

cptdent,

If you can get the class put together, I'd love to attend, especially if it was a Friday/Saturday event. It's not quite as easy for me to get away as it used to be.

Keep everyone posted on the particulars. I would like some additional hands on training.

Thanks,
Jimmy

Jennifer is awesome and an incredible knowledge source, you will not be disappointed.

This information is somewhat fluid, but I hope to get it all locked down before the end of next month.

This is meant to be an affordable opportunity for Surveyors to get a few needed hours, but could not make it the the State Association Convention.

Date = June 11, 2016 **** Set
Venue = Farris Municipal Park - Activities Building - Farris Park Road ‰ÛÒ Morton, MS 39117 (32.360506, -89.657790) *** RESERVED
Menu = Gonna be good!!!! - I ain't talking cold cuts and tap water.
Hours = 6 PDH ... I trimmed the time back to get the most out of the day without folks getting tired by the end (7:30 am to 4:00 pm)
Topics = MS SOP, Ethics and Carlson with DENT is locked in.... I have now arranged for a Environmental Scientist to speak
Cost = $75 for surveyors / $50 for non-licensed attendees... This is gonna be affordable with minimal loss to work time
Sponsor/Vendors = I have reached out to several and offered space and lunch for $100....again, this is not about getting rich.

For updates join the Central Mississippi Surveyors Group:

or email me Eric Williams - ewilliams.pls@gmail.com

Any and all help in pulling this off is welcomed!!

Thanks Y'all!!!!

Eric,

What is the best way to register for this seminar?

I have recently attended the ethics and minimum standards seminars, but am interested in the other classes.
