Blaze Your Network Initiative
We're thrilled to introduce the "Blaze Your Network" initiative, brought to you by the Professional Development Committee. After receiving valuable feedback from our one-day conference, we heard your desire for more focused conversations within defined groups. In response, we’ve created these tailored sessions to help you connect, learn, and grow with your peers.
