Southeastern Electricity Metering Association (SEMA) Presents

The 83rd Annual Short Course & Conference

Hilton Clearwater Beach, Clearwater Beach, FL

Nov. 3-6, 2008

President's Message

I would like to personally invite all metering and customer relations personnel to attend the 83rd annual Southeastern Electricity Metering Association Short Course and Conference. SEMA was established in 1925, and has been held in various locations around the state of Florida since then. The annual conference will be held at the Hilton Clearwater Beach Resort the week of November 3rd through 6th, 2008.

The metering industry and affiliated organizations have changed rapidly over the past few years. It is imperative to stay on the cutting edge of technology. The request for real time information has made our field of work very demanding and challenging. Among these contemporary technologies are AMR, AMI, and now Green Energy. The Federal and State Governments are focusing on energy conservation, renewables, and photovoltaic metering. Our goal is to address these issues and more. Whether just starting out in the metering industry or advanced, from customer relations to engineering, SEMA will provide what you are looking for. Between the Officers, Committee members, and fellow participants, you will find a solution to any problem you may have at hand.   

We, as representatives of SEMA, are dedicated to your furthered education. Upon completion of the course, Continuing Education Units (CEUs) will be received through the University of Florida. We challenge you to make new contacts with vendors and fellow participants. Shared knowledge from years of experience can be utilized during your entire career. This is our goal at SEMA because people are our company’s most valuable asset.
 
I would like to extend a sincere thank you to my fellow Officers, Executive Committee, and the University of Florida staff. Their concerted dedication and hard work is greatly appreciated.
  

Sincerely,
Jerrold Parrish
President
Southeastern Electricity Metering Association
