NXUnite invites you to their event

Lifelong Learners: How Associations Can Support Continued Education for their Members

About this event

One of the biggest challenges associations faces is member retention. Given the importance of having an engaged membership base, associations will likely want to spend time carefully planning activities for their members - continued education being one of them. In this panel, learn about the importance of continued education in the association space and how it can benefit your association’s long-term goals.
