This week, the 911 community gathered in Washington, DC, for the annual 911 Goes To Washington (GTW) fly-in. iCERT members came out in force and made their presence felt. It was, once again, great to see iCERT members making the trip to DC and fanning out across Capitol Hill for meetings with members of Congress. In addition to hitting the Hill, a large number of iCERT members came out to celebrate two iCERT members who were honored at the annual NG911 Institute’s Honor Awards. Mary Boyd was honored with the Carla Anderson “Heart of 911” Award, and Jeff Wittek of Motorola Solutions, Inc. was honored as the 911 Industry Professional of the Year. Several iCERT member company representatives participated as presenters in the Honor Awards ceremony. Overall, this year’s iCERT presence at GTW was outstanding and created the momentum we can continue to build on. Thanks to all who made the trip to our nation’s capital to lobby on our industry priorities.
