Check and update information of your society on our website
As many societies have presidents and officers whose term end at
the end of a year it would be good if you inform us on all the
changes which happened in your society. At the moment this is
very important as we need the registration for the Board Meeting
in Oslo by 18 March 2009. Please use this moment
to quickly check on our website whether the information displayed
is still correct. Please check not only the information on the
public website: /
