Aloha!
Welcome to the CSI Honolulu Chapter!
It is my pleasure to serve as your Chapter President for 2019-2021. Our chapter was founded 54 years ago. When I look at the list of presidents that came before me, I am humbled to be given this opportunity to continue the legacy of our very active and nationally recognized chapter.
Our Chapter meets monthly on every third Tuesday—in person OR virtually. We feature knowledgeable speakers from the construction industry, visit various job sites on Oahu, network with our peers, and most of all- we make time to meet new friends and catch up with old acquaintances. Most of our meetings feature CEU’s and learning units. For most of 2020 held our meetings virtually at absolutely no cost. No need to get dressed up and worry about traffic on the H-1. We actually have had better attendance on Zoom than at the Pacific Club! Please check our website for updates on our meeting schedule. We have never missed a beat, and hope to be back meeting in-person later this year.
We also encourage all our members to take advantage of CSI’s certification programs, especially the CDT. Whether you are a design professional, specification writer, construction manager, or product representative, the CDT will help you with your career. You can enroll directly with CSI or take one of the classes we offer locally. CSI recently re-published the Project Delivery Practice Guide (3rd Edition). We are partnering with CSI West Region this year for the review classes starting in February. Please check our website for registration information.
In 2020, we held our first all virtual PBX Conference. We are happy to report that in the period between September 1 and October 31, we had nearly 3,000 visitors to www.pbxhawaii.com. During the week of PBX20 alone, we had over 1,100 users on our site. Nearly 700 visitors took time to visit the showroom page where our sponsors uploaded their videos (the completed videos are available for your use). There were over 160 registered attendees, and our 18 sessions had anywhere from 30 to 80 people in attendance. In the days following PBX up until now, we have had over 300 visitors, many of them coming back to watch the presentations again. We are looking forward to the next show with much anticipation, please save the date for PBX21 at the Hawaii Convention Center for October 28, 2021. Check back on our website for registration information in the next few weeks.
If you are interested in becoming more active in the chapter, please feel free to reach out to me or any board member or committee chair for more information. We have volunteer and sponsorship opportunities of all kinds that are guaranteed to be rewarding.
On behalf of the board, and all the past presidents of our Chapter, mahalo for visiting the CSI Honolulu Chapter and we look forward to seeing you at one of our events soon!
Mahalo,
Timothy Waite, PE, CSI, CDT
