About Art Chantker

Potomac Forum was founded in 1982 as a non-profit educational organization to provide training to government executives, managers and senior staff. Potomac Forum Training Workshops are predicated on providing the highest quality training without vendor bias in high quality venues commensurate with the high quality of the government workforce. Our 100% focus is on the government employee who appreciates high quality training to help them perform their duties.As a retired government executive serving in CIO positions at the U.S. Marshals Service, Office of Naval Research and the Department of Education, I understand the challenges of a government executive and manager. At the Department of Transportation, I managed the Transportation Computer Center Operations and Software Development and at NIST, I co-authored the FIPSPubs on Mainframe Computer Evaluation and Selection and Computer Performance Measurement and Evaluation. I have been active in the IT association community as two times elected President of the Association for Federal Information Resources Management (AFFIRM) and honored as a "Life Member". I served on numerous other boards including; Vice President of Government Awards, AFCEA Bethesda: Women in Technology; Data Management Forum; and SiNET.
