Greetings to all,

Happy New Year and welcome to 2015! As the President of FPA of Minnesota for 2015, I wanted to take a few moments to give some well-deserved thanks to some key people who helped make 2014 a great success as well as make mention of some things on which we will be focusing as a Chapter for 2015. President's Message

Monthly Chapter Meeting - January 16
Economic Update
Hour 1: Monetary Policy and the Economy with Presenter
Dr. Narayana Kocherlakota

Hour 2: Ethical Use of Evolving Technologies
with Presenter
Mark Lanterman

Congratulations to Dr. Stephanie Kelton on being named a Chief Economist on the Senate Budget Committee.  Unfortunately for the FPA of Minnesota this means she is unable to speak to us at our January 16th meeting, but look forward to bringing her back as soon as she gets settled into her new role.

We are thrilled and thankful that Mark Lanterman, Chief Technology Officer for Computer Forensic Services, will be able to present for the second hour on January 16th.   Mark received extremely high reviews (3.94 out of 4.0) at the 2014 Annual Symposium.  We are sure you will appreciate hearing his presentation on Ethical Use of Evolving Technologies.

NOTE:  If you saw his presentation on October 21st at the Symposium, you will not be eligible for continuing education a second time. However, it certainly is worth listening to again.
   Thanks to our January Host & Platinum Partner Denny Bennett Group - Bell-Mortgage
