If you don't already have your ticket for the Women Empowering Women in HVACR virtual event, what are you waiting for? The sessions start tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. ET.

At just $24.99, your ticket gets you access to a suite of sessions on informative subjects about marketing, safety and human resources, barriers to entry for women in the skilled trades, and a special keynote address from MCA Canada CEO Tania Johnston.

The good news is that a handful of half-price, and buy-one-get-one-free tickets still remain.

The event is organized by the Ontario Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Contractors Association, and scheduled for Oct. 21 and 22. It offers an opportunity for professional development and networking for women throughout the HVACR industry.

MCA Canada's Women in Mechanical Construction is the proud platinum sponsor of this year's event.

The deadline to register for the fall/winter sessions of CEC's virtual Project Management Program is coming up this Thursday, Oct. 22.

Although we've changed the format and approach for this edition of the program to allow for virtual delivery, the content is as engaging and informative as ever! And, as always, it's Gold Seal and Blue Seal accredited.

We will offer this year's program online for two days a week over 10 weeks in November, December, January and February.

This course is always popular, and has attracted nearly 900 participants over its 40 sessions to date.
