Years in Review

2023 Speakers

Out of 734 members who attended at least one event in three years, 243 distinct members attended across 13 2023 events.

§We held one election and General Meeting

§We hosted ten technology enabled events

§We coordinated three live vents

–Oracle provide facility for two conferences and one training.

–123 out of 243 attendees of our membership have an ISC2 ID. For those members, all of their CPE were reported by the combined effort of the Director Education and the Chapter President. In total, our events, excluding those that require self reporting, enabled about 2200 continuing professional education credit hours.

We are extremely grateful to our esteemed speakers. If you choose to earn and self report CPE for their recorded contributions, please send a note to the chapter president@isc2-eastbay-chapter.com and summarize in under 150 words your experience. With that, we will be happy to represent your 2023 effort should you ever need verification against ISC2 Audit.
