When Past National President Connie Leipard was President-Elect (2015-2016), she started a series of webinars to educate Region Director candidates with NAWIC specific knowledge, information on their role as a National Board member, and tips on how to fill their roles more efficiently. This year’s topics are going to be a mixture of general leadership and NAWIC specific topics. The sessions are being finalized now, and the complete schedule will be available in November.
These webinars are OPEN to all members.

Attend the 1st webinar in this series on November 13th to find out not only how to get involved, but also a multitude of ways to expand your professional footprint through active participation on the NAWIC National level. Some opportunities may surprise you.
