The Education Foundation (EDF) of the Society of Exchange Counselors has been in existence for over three years. In that time, the Foundation has made valiant attempts to fulfill its Mission Statement: “The Mission of the S.E.C. Education Foundation is to encourage, sponsor and promote education programs in creative real estate.” The Foundation has met with varying degrees of success in marching toward their stated goals and objectives.
It is now time to review the progress that has been made and, perhaps, modify, change and/or add to the goals, objectives and aspirations of those who had the original vision and pioneered the Education Foundation of the Society of Exchange Counselors.
In that vein, the Education Foundation Board of Directors will perform what has been labeled, an “MRI!” The Board has formulated some 40 questions that need to be answered. In essence, the questions will address: How have we done? Where are we going? What can we do better? These questions, and many more, will be distributed to the EDF Board members, the founders and others for further investigation and comment. Their findings will be categorized and memorialized.
Over this year, it is the intention of the EDF to hold meetings with the membership to share those findings, solicit suggestions and ascertain how best to improve the EDF going forward.
The participation, suggestions, observations and recommendations of our members will prove to be invaluable to the “MRI” process. We look forward to this process, and hope that the result will enable us to provide an increased number of innovative and informative creative real estate courses to our guests and other interested individuals nationwide.
