TMCA completes renewal period for 2008.

While TMCA recruits potential credential holders throughout the calendar year, the early part of every year represents a focused effort on renewing past-year credential holders. This year there have been 143 renewals of the 226 credential holders of last year. As of mid-April, the total number of credential holders for 2008 is 235 versus 226 for all of 2007. The TMCA board feels that this represents an indication of increased numbers for the unfolding year. Click here for a few charts depicting the credential holder statistics and demographics.

TMCA at Conferences and Local Mediation Organizations

If you were able to attend the 2008 TAM conference, you undoubtedly enjoyed not only an outstanding program but an even more impressive venue, Galveston and the Galvez Hotel. Hopefully, if you were at the conference, you had a chance to stop by the TMCA exhibit and take a look at the material we distribute about our organization and talk with some of the board members. Click here for a short slide show for TMCA at TAM. We’re planning to be at the State Bar meeting in June in Houston. If you’ll be attending, stop by and visit the TMCA booth. Recently, TMCA visited with the Bexar County Dispute Resolution Center mediators, presenting material about TMCA and the criteria for the different credential levels. Did you know that the fee for volunteers is $25 per year, regardless of the credential held?
