<No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- I think if the NATA would not hoard money in some investments, they would not need to raise dues. ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- LORI ROCKS!!!! ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- What happens to this part of the mission statement if people can't afford the posting of a job that they have - and to advance the athletic training profession ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- It is my opinion that until the NATA becomes more active in helping our state lead the way on issues like third party reimbursement, we should not send them any more money. ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- I feel the dues should be the same if paid online or not. This is a penalty for those ATCs that work at schools who do not issue credit cards and require POs. ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- The fact hat he NATA has started charging to post position vacancies has kept a lot of companies and schools from posting on the web site. We need a place where those jobs can be posted. ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- The PVN's posted on the website is a great idea, but I believe the notices are not applicable to a wide range of ATC's. I think that we should just do away with them and get the money from the NATA ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- It seems NATA dues keeps going up and up with nothing extra to show for it. ------------------- Only if the NATA gets all of the GA jobs. Some Georgia jobs are not on the NATA site. ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- thanks paul ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- I would proud to say that Georgia is willing to sacrifice a few dollars to provide its members and those that support Athletic Training a venue to place, view and discover jobs. ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- Unable to respond to Question 3 since I don't know the revenue sharing structure ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- What is the purpose of the dues increase? ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- I think its outrageous to propose both a dues increase PLUS charge for position postings from paying members AND restrict free enterprise by posting PVN's on the list serves. ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- What's the reason for Dues increases? I pay on-line, since that is the easiest way for me, but why punnish those who are not computer savvy??? ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- I think that the NATA should have an outside audit to evaluate its current fee structure. ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- the dues are already high ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input> ------------------- <No data input>
