We are in the process of formalizing the calendar for educational workshops in 2012. The next educational workshop is being planned for July, 2012. More details to come soon!
We developed a series of complimentary educational workshops that were held throughout California on a quarterly basis in 2011. We discussed a series of topics, as well as hot topics with our clients and prospects. The workshops provided our insight on specific topics, as well as facilitated discussions with our clients and prospects to share knowledge and information amongst themselves.
