NAMB Planning Regional Conferences

The National Association of Mortgage Brokers has announced that it will begin holding regional industry conferences next year.The NAMB said the regional conferences would better serve its membership of 27,000. "Our members attend these meetings to take advantage of educational opportunities, network with their peers, and discuss the many policy issues facing our industry," said NAMB president Jim Nabors. "We need to make these meetings more accessible to members. This new regional approach will accomplish this goal." Mr. Nabors said the NAMB will co-sponsor a regional sales and marketing meeting in California in February, and plans are under way for meetings in the other regions. A larger meeting for the western region of the country, called NAMB West, will take place in Las Vegas in October 2006. The association can be found online at http://www.namb.org.
