RCCIWA Members Forum– June 22^nd and 23^rd 2023
We are planning for our two RCCIWA Members Forums this year and are looking forward to delivering valuable and relevant events and also of course, to being able to spend time with you over the two days (our favourite part!!).  Our June dates are:

Thursday June 22^nd – Advocacy Day at Hale House

Thursday June 22^nd – Business After Hours

Friday June 23^rd – Operational and strategic day – venue to be confirmed

We have not finalized the logistics yet, however as soon as we have more information, we will share it with you. For now, can you please save the dates – we would love to see you there. For those who have not attended previously, attached is some information we prepared for last year’s June Forum that may be helpful.

Can you also please send me any suggestions on speakers, topics or workshops you would like to see us include. All suggestions are keenly encouraged and very much welcome. We are looking at perhaps including a delivered workshop on day two on Grants and Funding (as many of our members have suggested this) so I would like to know if this is of interest to you and your organisation, or what other workshops you think would be of value.  Please let me know at ceo@regionalchamberswa.com.au

RCCIWA Share n Learn Online Workshops
Late 2021 we commenced our regular Share N Learn online workshops, covering areas such as  revenue streams, membership & sponsorship structures, marketing your organisation, shop local campaigns and business awards. They are proving to be very valuable sessions with lots of great information shared and very informative conversations. A big thank you to our President Simone de Been for suggesting the whole concept of the Share n Learn and for offering to facilitate sessions. Based on the very positive feedback from our members we will continue to hold these regularly, and we are planning these to recommence early this year. They are a fantastic way to share ideas, activities, processes, and ways of working as well as for picking up very relevant tips, tricks and suggestions. We are keen to receive your suggestions for any topics you would like covered – so please send them through to me ceo@regionalchamberswa.com.au

RCCIWA Monthly Online Members Meeting

• On the second Tuesday of each month at 10am we hold an online members’ meeting which usually runs for an hour to 90 minutes. We usually see about 15 members represented each month to give member updates, discuss common issues & possible solutions to these, as well as the opportunity to share and learn from each other. We also hear from experts from the SBDC and CCIWA, as well as others as requested. The monthly meetings are a great way of connecting with our members with each other, as well as working through common issues or activities. Calendar Invites for the year were sent to our members last week. If you do not have a calendar invite, please let me know and I will send you one. The agenda and a reminder will be sent out a few days before the meeting each month. Our first meeting for 2023 will be held on February 14^th at 10am via MS Teams– because we LOVE our members!!
