Chapter Meetings

APIC SEW dedicates an hour-long educational program at each chapter meeting, to include topics relevant to our diverse areas of practice. We also feature a rotation of Vendor partners and provide an opportunity for roundtable discussion amongst members. We have a strong networking relationship with the WI State Department of Public Health which shares educational opportunities across the state of Wisconsin. Lunch is provided at most meetings. Individual meeting invites will indicate whether lunch is provided that day.

Meeting minutes are available to current members here. Or you can click on the Members Only tab, select Library, and navigate to "Chapter Meeting Minutes" in the left panel.

Save the Date for our upcoming Summer Gathering on September 17th!
