14th Annual ECN Workshop
Life in the Fast Lane: Innovation in Event Management
The Annual ECN Workshop is back in person for the first time in two years! Join the ECN for this free professional development opportunity to learn more about what it means to be innovative throughout the event planning process. Life is moving fast, and there are many tools to keep up with the challenges thrown in an event coordinator’s journey to the finish line. A light breakfast and full lunch will be provided.
The last day to RSVP was Friday, Jan. 13. We have a limited number of walk-up spots available.
