What if some of our officers do not have Facebook?? Also things were quite hectic in November and December. Are there any online officer training ?? Thanks for your help with this.

The officer training dates were sent out by email as well - the local officer Facebook group is a definitely helpful tool for finding information and asking questions, but all mandatory information is still sent out to each officer's email address as well.
I'd make sure that all of your officers are checking their email regularly if they aren't on Facebook. Also, make sure they are reading the Chapter Officer news each month too. (You should get emails about the newsletters, or you can also find them under your Members Area on the AAPC website here:

From what I've seen mentioned in the Facebook group, the last officer training session was on January 16th. I'm not sure if there will be any additional dates added or not - that might depend on how much need there is for officers who still haven't attended a session.
I'd suggest contacting the Chapter Association representatives for your region and making them aware that you still have officers who haven't completed training. The Chapter Association representatives are the ones who presented the training sessions, so if there's a need for more they'd be the ones to schedule them.
Good luck!
