THE PULSE OF GIADA

EVENTS

Taking Care of Business CALENDAR

Your association has never been busier than it is today. Continuing Education Class
With the ETR mandate in place, more and more dealers
are finally getting used to the system. March 19- Atlanta
Of course, this is dealer renewal period, so dealers are
making sure they get their CE class certification by either Pre-License Seminar
taking the GIADA CE OnDemand class or participating
in one of the few CE in-person seminars, which will soon March 21- Macon, GA
come to an end.
All dealers who plan to renew their license better hurry, Pre-License Seminar
time’s running out! Those who fail to get their CE class
credits before March 31st will have to start all over again. March 24 - Marietta, GA
GIADA CEO, Paul John
This time of year is a good time to take a step back to
review your entire business. What I mean by that is Pre-License Seminar
evaluating every aspect of your business model and all the moving parts. The first thing I’d
recommend is taking a close look at your business insurance. Has your commercial liability March 29 -Norcross, GA
coverage kept up with growth? Are you underinsured and exposed? I’d recommend having
a conversation with your insurance agent and having them explain your policy in detail. Pre-License Seminar

If you took the online CE course, there were plenty of downloadable documents, rules
and compliance information to take in. Please make sure you read through all documents. April 9 - Marietta, GA

Those who took the in-person CE class may have noticed our speakers were totally different
this time around. We gave members a GIADA jump drive that may be inserted into any Pre-License Seminar
computer for review, which includes 22 modules and areas of education and compliance.
If you print its entire contents, you’ll have access to over 200 pages of compliance training. April 12 - Norcross GA
Finally, mark your calendar for this summer’s GIADA Convention and Trade Expo on July
12-14th. The convention will be located at the Savannah Hyatt Regency and we’re making Pre-License Seminar
arrangements to bring in the most relevant industry speakers and trainers. This year’s
keynote speaker will be Mr. Herman Cain, expert business executive and radio host. How April 18 - Macon, GA
exciting is that?
