If your organization is cautiously approaching 2021 as the year for rebuilding your conferences and events, you’ll need to have strong planning and strategy in place, not to mention a high level of flexibility in the lingering pandemic “normal.” This half-day workshop is designed to quickly get you up to speed on how to plan for future events while making you aware of key legal considerations to keep your organization protected.
