I had meant to post this a while ago, but the event occurred during our Westgard Workshops in late May, just as we entered an extremely busy part of our year.
What the title refers to is the fact that the Westgard Web has reached 10,000 members.
Actually, however, as of this moment, in early July, we have actually exceeded 11,000 members.
Now, this is not a huge accomplishment, since, after all, we don't charge for membership. It's not too hard to get members if there isn't a financial barrier to joining. So while the AACC, CLMA, and ASCLS have smaller memberships, their members are committed enough.
All that said, 11,000 is a large number, particularly for laboratory professionals. There aren't that many of them in the world and to see so many visit one place is a good sign that we're doing something right. And since all of those 11,000+ members took the time to tell us something about themselves, we have a better idea of what type of laboratories, companies, and organizations are interested in our offerings, as well as suggestions on what we should address in the future. Your feedback helps us stay in tune with the laboratory marketplace and we always want to hear from you.
In sum, Thank You to the Westgard Web members. We hope that you'll keep coming back for more.
