From the desk of the President – June 2024
By: PJ Garcia
Welcome to SUMMER 2024! Where did Spring go, anyway?
Did you catch our 2024 Conference? Great sessions and networking at a beautiful location. Our enthusiastic support and thank you to all our Sponsors without whose help we could not have made it happen. Our deepest appreciation to every Speaker who took the time and effort to come to us and bring us up to date. I came away both inspired and frightened. Yes, some of the topics like Cybersecurity are terrifying, but fear grows in the dark and EIC is working hard to turn on the lights.
If you enjoyed the Conference, spread the word!
Membership in the Escrow Institute of California (EIC) means you are REALLY not alone.
My PJ-isms are: “Look for the Unintended Consequences everywhere” and “The more we do things the same way, the better off we all are.” Hence our theme this year, Educate, Innovate & Collaborate. We are at a crossroads in our profession and I am afraid if we don’t make a mission of those three words we will not like where we end up. Take this journey with us to a better and brighter escrow future. Let’s leave it better than we found it.
With EIC you have access to a robust network of seasoned professionals who are always willing to pick up the phone and discuss the problem in front of you.
Take the “gateway drug” to that path by joining one of our Committees. All that is required is that your company be a member and you bring with you the spirit of collaborating and getting stuff done!
Our 2025 Conference Committee is forming now. If you want to participate in creating the 2025 experience please contact admin@escrowinstitute.org to be added to the Committee roster. For other Committee information please watch for announcements from our CPR Committee via email. Our website committee is also working to post a signup sheet on our website so visit there periodically to see the new and improved resources they are working on for you.
With a new spring in my step and gratitude for all of you in my heart,
Respectfully submitted,
PJ Garcia, EIC 2024 President
