Hello,
One of the projects underway is to create an ARRL Speakers Bureau. This has been a top for some time now and one in which many have interest. We are reaching out to ODV in the hopes of creating a cadre of core speakers as we progress with
the build. With that in mind, I would ask the first simple question if you are interested in participating. Here are a few bullet points to get started and I am sure that many questions will follow.
-
Speakers will be presented with a quality headshot, a short three sentence bio, and a short list of topics that that speakers is prepared to present. The emphasis is short.
-
Speakers will be able to select if they are willing to present in person, with reasonable restrictions, and virtually.
-
The site will ask the person hoping to book a speaker to fill out some basic information into an online form and you will have the ultimate choice if you wish to present.
-
Recorded presentations will also be available in the Learning Center.
Bob Inderbitzen, Steve Goodgame, and I are working to get this off the ground. We are looking for speakers that at this time would be interested. There is a great deal to do, and we are working to make this a quality and usable resource.
If you are interested in being in the ARRL Speakers Bureau all that I need today is your interest. Drop me an email and I will add you to our core list.
Thanks
Mike
