I'm pleased with the AAFCS efforts to utilize many of the diverse web technology formats. Reaching members/clients/students with a well-done, little-different content format communicates to our audience authentic “thought leadership". Embracing virtual technology also brands AAFCS and professionals as experts or a trusted resource to turn to again within our diverse audiences. I look forward to Annual Meeting offering FCS professional facilitators a diverse portfolio of thought leadership in web media content (blog, podcast, e-book, or webinar).

As a retired FCS professional, I work hard as a volunteer for the association. Through this effort, I too, have learned to blog, to meet via Live Meeting technology, stay in touch in a timely manner via my Blackberry, publish a video via YouTube, conduct research on a daily basis in the comfort of my own home, and to stay connected to a wide range of professionals across the country. I cannot imagine my life without all this access. The sense of accomplishment in conquering technology is one of the joys of my days.

I think this is a critical part of why professional associations are so important. If you think about it, every time you are on a comittee or hold an office, that is more non-content based professional development - in the form of leadership development which is one of the most transferable skills out there.
