“It is truly an honor to receive this recognition from the International Masters of Gaming Law,” said Vialpando, who received the award at the Wynn Country Club. “My overarching goal in the various careers I’ve enjoyed — law enforcement, education, and tribal gaming regulation — has been to advance best practices and innovative technology to improve our delivery of service and assist my professional counterparts in accomplishing the goals of their organizations.”
Vialpando, who also is chairman of the California-based Santa Ysabel Tribal Gaming Commission, was lauded for his overall body of work as a regulator and as someone who has made noteworthy contributions to the Indian gaming industry.
“Your work in promoting tribal regulations for new and innovative gaming products for tribal casinos, as well as being a frequent author and panelist on gaming issues is in keeping with the IMGL’s mission of ‘advancing gaming through education,’” IMGL President Michael E. Zatezalo said in a letter notifying Vialpando of the award.
“Kudos to David for exemplifying what OnCourse Learning stands for as a preeminent leader in the training and e-learning space,” said Brett Shively, executive vice president of OnCourse Learning Financial Services.
