President's Message
Rhonda Brashears
I bring you this, my last President’s
report. I have really enjoyed my
second term as President of the Paralegal
Division it truly has been my honor to
serve you again. During this year I have
made it my goal to continue to expand
your member benefits. I believe that
being a member of the Paralegal Division
is one of the best professional assets
you can have, but I also believe it needs
to be worth your hard earned money.
We know that CLE is very important to
our members, so by the time this magazine
reaches you the Paralegal Division
will have held three webinars. In addition,
the Division continues to grow its
online CLE library, with several new
events recently added, find them at
www.txpd.org. We offer some of the
most affordable and up to
date online CLE. Finally,
the Paralegal Division
Directors and the District
CLE Sub-Chairs continue to
work very hard to provide
CLE to our members statewide.
Approximately 40
hours of District CLE have
either taken place Districts
around the state.
Did you know that PD has a job bank?
Well we do, yet another benefit, it is on
our website at www.txpd.org. This is
there for you, so that you can continually
have access to potential jobs all over
the state.
The Paralegal Division is also trying to
keep up with the technology available to
us. Stephanie Hawkes, President-Elect
has set up groups on Linked In and Face
Book. The URL is www.linkedin.com
and www.facebook.com enter “Texas
Paralegal Division” in
the Search Groups box.
These are just a few of
the benefits of being a
member of the Paralegal
Division, a complete list
can be found on the
Paralegal Division website.
While it is the end of my
term it is the beginning
of the term for Stephanie Hawkes, your
incoming President and Debbie Guerra,
your incoming President-Elect, I know
that I leave you in very capable hands.
They both have very great ideas to continue
to make the Paralegal Division the
best it can be for PD members.
