The Parliamentary Procedure Instructional Materials Center was organized in 1989. The main thrust of the Center is to provide accurate information and activities related to parliamentary procedure based on the current edition of Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised.
Professional Registered Parliamentarians write and proof-read all of our instructional materials. In addition, the materials are tested by secondary school (grades 7-12) and college Parliamentary Procedure Teachers throughout the United States before they are marketed. As a result of this quality control, our products are accepted nation-wide by a diversity of groups and they have been endorsed by many teachers.
We have also conducted over 500 activity-oriented workshops for over 12,485 participants from grade six to adults over seventy years of age. Because we use our instructional materials when conducting workshops, we can continually improve them through input from our students.
And finally, our consulting services keep us abreast of the needs of our clients. We have incorporated information into our products that have come from questions and concerns through our consulting, thus making our instructional materials more relevant and easier to use.
The Parliamentary Procedure Instructional Materials Center is confident that you will find our instructional materials easy to use and accurate. We welcome suggestions for improvements and new products. |
