Forum Presentations
Preceding our monthly dinner meeting, we host a Forum that facilitates the exchange of current trends and processes. This is usually presented by a PMAC Subject Matter Expert (SME) and covers a variety of topics. We will make every reasonable attempt to post the Forum SME presentation within 2-3 working days after our monthly meeting.
