Chapter Role in CMLDP • When chapter leadership is notified of a candidate’s desire to pursue the CMLDP: • Determine if funds are available for support • Determine how the candidate will fit into the chapter succession plan • Provide a letter to the candidate (addressed to NCMA) detailing available funds, role, and recommendation (optional) • NOTE:IT IS NOT THE CHAPTER’S ROLE TO STOP AN APPLICATION
Everybody wins! The candidate’s company wins The chapter wins The candidate wins The career field wins We’re creating the next generation of CM and NCMA leaders
What if the Chapter Does Not Provide a Letter? • If a CMLDP candidate does not provide a chapter letter, the following guidance is provided by the CMLDP Oversight Committee • Provide a statement detailing the efforts to obtain a letter, including chapter leadership names and dates • If there is no support from an active chapter, or there is no active local chapter, provide a statement annotating chapter support capability for other chapters (ie, website maintenance, newsletter, Chapter Rescue Plan)
