As President of the Middle Tennessee Chapter I am proud to share the excellent work of one of our own members.  The November CPCU Journal features and article on Certificates of Insurance by Bill Wilson.  The focus of this article is a major issue confronting our industry today.  Bill's knowledge of our industry and his gift for teaching brings value to all CPCU's.  I was fortunate to see this article presented live at our National Convention in Denver this year, and I am glad that Bill is a part of our Chapter.

Many of you are new to the Middle Tennessee Chapter and may not know Bill.  I encourage you to attend our regular monthly meetings, especially the November meeting to be held next Thursday, November 18th at the State Farm office in Murfreesboro.  Bill is the guest speaker for this meeting.
