Village Profile™ Tells Chambers of Commerce:
"We’ll Pay-Your-Way™ to State, Regional and National Chamber Conferences"

(Elgin, IL) -- President/CEO of Chamber publisher Village Profile™, Dan Nugara, is aggressively promoting a registration reimbursement program to encourage Chamber of Commerce executives and their staffs to attend their state, regional and national Chamber conferences because, says Nugara, “We all know how invaluable Chamber conferences are for education and networking” yet too many Chambers’ budgets simply don’t allow for conference attendance.

The unprecedented Village Profile™ R.S.V.P.™ Chamber Scholarship Program pays Chamber conference registration for the professionals who plan, manage, direct and administer their Chamber’s operations.

“We hear our Chamber customers lament that they would love to attend their state conference, or the annual ACCE convention or the W.A.C.E. conference,” says Nugara, "for the opportunities to network with peers and learn to manage their organizations more effectively and efficiently.

“Chamber conferences and conventions feature renowned speakers and dynamic course instructors. In today’s fast-paced, local-regional-national-global marketplace and highly competitive, often-volatile business environment, Chamber executives, like executives in every other industry, must engage in continuing education to best serve their members -- who come from ALL industries.“

Village Profile™ observes its 22nd anniversary in 2010 (company timeline), having published community guides, membership directories, maps and atlases for nearly 1,400 Chambers of Commerce since 1988. In over two decades, the publisher has supported the Chamber industry through exclusive corporate sponsorships of industry associations such as the American Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE) and the Western Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (W.A.C.E.), sponsorship of more than 75 state and regional Chamber conferences, and membership in all of the Chambers of Commerce it has partnered with to produce their publications.
