MARSP Leadership Webinar Series

Introducing the MARSP Leadership Webinar Series!

We have created this special webinar series for chapter leadership. In the past, leadership training has been done face to face, but due to COVID-19, we are not able to host these face to face training sessions. We still want to provide chapter leaders the opportunity to continue their professional development and deliver timely and critical information to you.

This webinar series will take place online from the comfort of your own home. We encourage you to logon and attend these meetings live as there may be components of the training that are geared toward live interaction.

We will continue to grow our library of training and resources for chapter leaders. You can refer back to this page for future events and access timely resources.

Times have changed and the way we did things last year is not the same this year. We know that many chapters are weighing the options and trying to figure out if holding virtual or in-person is possible. We hear you and we want to provide you with details needed to make a leadership decision for your chapter.

In this webinar, we will share important information that chapters will need to consider when proceeding with virtual or in-person meetings.

Topics include:
– State and local restrictions
– Meeting location restrictions
– Chapter restrictions
– Data recording and reporting
– Food and beverage
– Cleaning and sanitization
– Virtual meetings
– and more!

After this webinar, you will have additional knowledge and resources to help guide your decision for planning future virtual and in-person meetings for your chapter.

MARSP Workbook for Events and Gatherings: In-person and Virtual

As you think about planning in-person or virtual MARSP meetings, there are several factors that chapter leaders need to consider.  This workbook was created as an interactive planning tool to help guide your planning.

You will find considerations and guidance needed to plan in-person and virtual meetings during a pandemic.  Please know that this booklet is not a complete guide as there are no concrete answers as COVID-19 is continuously changing our landscape.  This booklet has been updated as of September 2020 and is subject to change as we learn more.
