When the 2020 Taking Care of Business Conference was cancelled, you missed valuable programming you rely on. And workshop presenters lost an opportunity to share their expertise with you.

That’s why we’re excited to announce plans to offer five of the previously-scheduled workshops virtually. Each is designed to provide ideas and insight you can implement immediately.

The workshops will be presented live on October 29, November 11 and December 3.
