Please join the Northern Virginia chapter of ARMA for a very special
celebration at our December 3 chapter meeting.  During the meeting we will
celebrate the chapter’s recognition from ARMA International as Large Chapter
of the Year (as well as Website of the Year) and continue our chapter’s
decade-long tradition of supporting Training Futures. 

Dinner will be paid for by the chapter for every person who donates $25 or
more to Training Futures.  In addition, the chapter will donate $200 and
match any personal donation over $25. (You give $50; the chapter matches
$25).  There are Bronze ($25), Silver ($35), Gold ($50), Platinum ($75), and
Diamond ($100) levels.  Please invite your family and friends (your boss is
most welcome) to join us and meet those dedicated and exciting ARMA people
that you network with.

During the meeting we will hear from Beth Lavin, Training Future’s Career
and Alumni Coordinator.  We will also hear from one of the students enrolled
in the Training Futures training program.

About Training Futures:
Training Futures prepares high-potential, underemployed individuals for more
stable, professional office careers, via a 25-week career-training program,
focusing on office and computer skills.  The program is part of the Northern
Virginia Family Services (NVFS) – a private, non-profit 501(c) (3)
organization. Students are trained in medical terminology, health care
insurance, billing and coding, MS Office Suite, Windows Internet/e-mail,
keyboarding, business math/English, customer service, reception duties,
filing, 10-key calculators, and professional development workshops.  As part
of their training, they learn core records management skills.

Since its inception in 1996, Training Futures has trained more than 1,000
people – with 90% of its graduates obtaining permanent positions, making
significantly more money than what they could have earned without the
training. Part of this success stems from the program’s focus on teaching
problem-solving and communication skills, in a simulated office environment.
Trainees must arrive on time, dress professionally, complete assigned office
projects, and receive periodic performance reviews. The Training Futures
website is http://www.nvfs.org/trainingfutures.htm   

The ARMA NOVA chapter has supported Training Futures for the past ten years.
 Last year, the chapter raised a record $2,390 for this very worthy
organization.  Let’s see if we can surpass that record!
