Dear ODV, A few weeks ago the Officers and Director's Insurance Policy and the Omission and Errors Liability Policy were renewed. In order to retain coverage on sexual harassment claims on the renewal, ARRL is now required to provide all directors and vice directors with harassment training. As our society's culture is changing, such training is not just a good idea but important for us as an organization to support. In order to comply with this new requirement, we are going to integrate the training into Director/Vice Director orientations that take place on the Wednesday before each January's Board Meeting. The training will be held after dinner on Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the hotel. The training will be held by Human Resource Counsel from CBIA (Connecticut Business and Industry Association). Most of you received this training already in July 2018 and do not need to attend. However, I am requesting that our newer members of the board family (see below) who have not received this training from ARRL plan on attending Wednesday night's training. If you would, please confirm your attendance with Dee Methe no later than December 20, 2019 in order for us to have appropriate space configuration and materials ready. Thank you/73, Diane Middleton, W2DLM Chief Financial Officer ARRL, the national association for Amateur Radio(r) 225 Main Street Newington, CT 06111 (860) 594-0225 Requested Attendees: Ria Jairam Fred Hopengarten Mike Ritz Bud Hippisley Robert Wareham Lee Cooper Robert Famiglio Mark Tharp
