Future PLUS
On June 15, 2011, PLUS announced the Future PLUS initiative. Future PLUS seeks to attract, educate and retain the next generation of professional liability insurance specialists to ensure a bright future for the industry and PLUS, its flagship educational and networking association.
A key component of the Future PLUS initiative is the establishment of a new membership level for professionals who are 35 years old or younger. The Future PLUS membership level allows professionals who are newer to the industry to join PLUS for just $50 annually and includes the full benefits of a PLUS membership, including member rates for the PLUS curriculum, national and chapter events, member access to plusweb.org, and receipt of the monthly PLUS Journal. In addition, a member of the Future PLUS Committee will participate in all PLUS Board meetings.
Future PLUS is charged with finding ways to expand and enhance PLUS's traditional education, information and networking offerings to increase the appeal and relevance of PLUS to new generations of professional liability professionals. A main focus of Future PLUS is building the skills of members through public speaking workshops, opportunities to speak on panels and access to industry events. Future PLUS also communicates the needs and interests of next-generation members of the insurance community to the PLUS Board to develop a Society that appeals to a younger, more diverse generation of professionals. Future PLUS seeks to maintain a vibrant and engaged association that benefits members of all ages.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“To pin your hopes upon the future is to consign those hopes to a hypothesis, which is to say, a nothingness. Here and now is what we must contend with.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“The future of humanity is uncertain, even in the most prosperous countries, and the quality of life deteriorates; and yet I believe that what is being discovered about the infinitely large and infinitely small is sufficient to absolve this end of the century and millennium. What a very few are acquiring in knowledge of the physical world will perhaps cause this period not to be judged as a pure return of barbarism.”
—Primo Levi (1919–1987)
