I recently received a notice from the California Medical Instrumentation Association (CMIA) about an upcoming chapter meeting where the speaker will discuss device development. Monthly association meetings often include speakers and/or training and sometimes the speaker’s company will host the dinner.

How does your association find its monthly speakers? How do you decide on the training? We’re hoping you’ll share your best practices and help other regional associations learn how to strengthen their offerings and attendance.

The Intermountain Clinical Instrumentation Society (ICIS) has had some wonderful presentations this year. We found our speakers through referrals.

Though it happens that both presenters work for companies that decided to sponsor a meal, we have at least one local company willing to chip in if the need arises for a meeting meal.

We ask for the meeting planning committee to review the proposed topics and the presentation materials before selecting a presenter. This, we believe, ensures that our valuable time isn't wasted on sales-pitches or presentations put together at the last minute.
