Message from the Executive
Director
Dear RPA Members:
As RPA has grown over the years,
its members' ongoing needs for information also have grown.
During the past year, the
Board of Directors has sought comment from its members and reacted by
instituting new and improved functions for the membership. Some of
those improvements include:
-
Easier Application and
Testing Process. Our website now gives both members and prospective members information
and a process to submit an application easier, take a test online with
immediate results, and a streamlined testing mechanism that will
demonstrate the prospective designee's knowledge of the claims
industry.
-
Easier Continuing
Education Submission. In what is the most sweeping
improvement to the RPA CE submission process, members no longer are
required to submit documents and materials to pre-approve CE's.
In fact, in a membership of professionals, we acknowledge that you are
honest and professional and your certification of having taken a
course is sufficient that a course was taken. Click
here for more information.
-
Outreach
Programs. The RPA is reaching out to various industry
leaders and organizations to promote the RPA and the importance of
utilizing RPA designees. The RPA has made presentations during
various Meet & Greet locations throughout the year.
-
All
Volunteer Board of Directors. The new vision of the RPA realizes
the importance of the RPA designation in an industry which sometimes
gets lost in the claims it handles and loses sight of the
professionals it expects to be there to handle the claims of the
future. The Board volunteers its time and efforts to promote the
Society's RPA designees while keeping the costs associated with
running an international organization.
We sincerely hope you enjoy
our all-new RPA website. Whenever you have any comments or suggestions,
don't hesitate to contact us and let us know!
Sincerely,
Pamela Murphy
Executive Director
December, 2006
