Our Section continues to provide many activities for the benefit of our membership. The Section 1510 Student Branch at Nova Southeastern University (NSU) held a meeting on April 29
th with buffet dinner and a presentation by Roland Cavanagh on
“What it Takes to be a PI Professional.” Also our monthly dinner/meeting/presentation was held at Shula’s in Miami Lakes on the second Tuesday of May with the topic of “Establishing OOT Limits in the Healthcare Products” presented by Leonel Vanegas of Noven Pharmaceuticals. Congratulations to Maria Bauer for winning the door prize: a Mr. Coffee Programmable Coffeemaker. The SFMA and the ASQ Section 1510 held a one-day “Quality System Audit Train-ing” taught by Kannan Krishnan on May 14th. We appreciate the time and energy dedicated by Roland Cavanagh and Leonel Vanegas by sharing with us their knowledge and experience. Last but not least, we recognize Kannan Krishnan for his proven expertise in Quality Auditing. Two members of our Leadership Team, Mayra Bisnow, Vice Chair, Past Chair, and PAR Chair of Section 1510 and Brooke Meltzer, Vice Chair of our Student Branch at NSU attended the ASQ 2015 World Conference on Quality and Improvement in Nashville, TN in May. They represented our Section at this important annual inter-national conference. I had the opportunity to talk with Mayra after her return and she told me how satisfied she was with the efficiency and effectiveness of the or-ganization of the conference that was held with a perfect timeline and without a glitch. The next dinner/meeting/presentation will be held on June 9
th at the Tropical Acres
Steakhouse in Fort Lauderdale. The biennial Section Leadership Training is planned for half-day on Saturday, July 18
th at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Sunrise.

Recertifying?
As you retain your RU’s remember to check that the Recertification Journal Application form you use is the current version when submitting your recertification package.
If you use a form that has an out of date fee, ASQ National in Milwaukee will not update your certification until their current fee is paid. Your local Section does not set or collect the fees, the fees are collected when the approved recertification package is processed in Milwaukee.
If you use an outdated form and do not remit the full recertification fee to National, your recertification will be delayed.
You can download the current form from http://asq.org/cert/recertification.
If your membership is not current but you still select the "member" fee, the application will not be processed and your recertification will be held.
In that case, please consider renewing your membership - you'll get the lower member rates for recertifying, and many other benefits as well!"
If you have any questions regarding re-certification, please contact Jim Carbone CQA, CQE, CBA, CMQ/OE, ASQ Southeast Florida Section 1510 Recertification Chair: [email protected] or (954) 817-9797.
ASQ Recertification Guidelines
Have three years passed so quickly that you’re ready to recertify your ASQ Certifications? Some points to consider that will make the process quick and easy for everyone:
1. Provide corroborating documents for the recertification units (RUs) that you claim in your jour-nal application.
2. Make sure that the RUs claimed were earned BEFORE the expiration of your certification – if not, they will apply to the next certification but not the current certification.
3. If you’re synchronizing two or more certifications, be sure to have enough RUs accumulated for the shortest period, i.e., the certification that expires latest (that you ’re “pulling in” to the same date as the first of the certifications that are expiring).
4. SIGN THE ETHICS STATEMENT on the Recertification Journal application! This is critical – without your signature, the application will not be processed.
5. Enclose payment, made out to “ASQ” not to Section 1510, not to any person. If you wish to make payment by credit card, sign the credit card section AND ALSO BE SURE TO SIGN THE ETHICS STATEMENT – there are TWO different signatures for two different purposes.
6. Please DO NOT send your application by private carrier (DHL, UPS, FedEx, etc.) – private carri-ers cannot deliver to Post Office boxes.
7. Please DO NOT send your application by Certified Mail or by Express Mail. Certainly these deliv-er to PO Boxes, but they require in-person signature for receipt which may delay your application. If you feel you must have delivery confirmation, pay the much smaller cost (less than a dollar) and get delivery confirmation through the post office.
