Hello and welcome to the 2022-2023 season for the Palmetto Section of ASQ!
I'm Adam Caldwell, your Chair for '22 and '23 and I look forward to the upcoming series of meeting we will be hosting for you. This year, we will explore some old favorites - food safety and problem solving.  We will also dip our toes into some areas that we have not explored in a while like how to conduct a recall or underappreciated measurement tools.  We are working on securing two tours this year - one from a winery and the  other from BMW!


Based on the success, and the extended reach, of the zoom meetings over the past couple of years, we are going to continue to maintain that avenue for this season as well. Aside from the tours, we will be using Zoom for the monthly meetings.  One item to note about the zoom meetings - all of the meetings will be using the same zoom invite! So if you register for one of the meetings, you will have the log in for all of the sessions the rest of the year. This will help you be able to join a meeting in the event your conflict clears up. The meetings are an easy way to both increase your knowledge and for those with certifications from ASQ…pick up some CEUs! Each meeting is worth 0.5 credits and you get confirmation of the CEUs awarded after the meeting.


One last thing as you prepare to plan your attendance to the meetings for this year…the board is in need of some support from the members. Many of the current board members that have been working to sustain this section are looking to move on to other activities. With that in mind, we are needing some of you to join us so that we are able to maintain the Palmetto Section for years to come.  While the roles vary, we are looking for folks that would be willing to volunteer a few hours a month during the June-August window to plan the next seasons meetings. If you are not sure how to serve but are willing to jump in and see how you can make a difference, please reach out to me at chair@palmettoasq.org and we will get you started!
