Let's Learn: Creating Educational Programs for Association Members

About this event

Education is the key to success!

For any organization to succeed, each and every member should know about what their organization stands for and what they offer. Creating programs that fuel learning, and keeping members engaged are just some things that take any organization to the next level. Join us as we deep dive with some nonprofit industry leaders into the topic of creating educational programs.
