This week Amanda and Darryl learn all about the new Pandemic Compliance Advisor course being offered by the team over at Health Education Services (https://healtheducationservices.net/training/pandemic-compliance-advisor/). They interview the creators/facilitators: Heather Seasholtz, CMP, DES, Mary-Ann Urbanovich, MS, CMP-HC and Shannon Majewski, CMP, CMM, HMCC. Sure there's lots of talk of duty (not doody) of care but so much more goes into this new role. Listen to learn more and for information on upcoming courses.

Takeaways:
1) Pandemic Compliance Advisor is not the same as the meeting planner. You have to allocate somebody to this position.
2) Duty of care is the most important thing. Remember back to the Due Diligence section of your CMP training.
3) To get the latest guidance, look to your CVB partners, look to local health officials and take into consideration what may change between now when you’re planning and then when you show up on site.
4) Think about things that may never change. We will most likely always keep hand sanitizer on the registration desk and perhaps buffets will turn into action stations
