We will take this opportunity to not only recognize the Fellows that have successfully completed the Fellowship Examination in 2022 but also those that were conferred Fellowship virtually in 2021 and January 2022.
We invite our current Fellows and Members to join in the gowned Procession to start the Convocation Ceremony.
The Convocation Ceremony will be immediately followed by a cocktail reception open to all attendees.

We invite all Fellows, Members and their guests to come and join the celebration.
