Hello WSIA Members!

Hope you are enjoying the holiday season.  With winter travel being what it is, I am pleased to say that much of our upcoming training is in the form of webinars!  I’d like to focus this column on the Advanced Topic Webinars which will begin in February.

 

 

New Advanced Webinars

We are in the process of finalizing 4 new advanced topic webinars for 2011.  These will be added to our training page on the website in January.  We hope to offer solid, advanced topics which will provide a positive learning experience and also earn you some continuing education credits.  Continuing education credits will be posted on our website as soon as they are known, along with further details regarding the webinar topics.  All webinars will be held from 10:30 AM – Noon, Pacific Time, on the dates noted below.

Archived Webinars

There are currently several archived webinars available for purchase on our website but some will be removed soon.   If you haven’t had a chance to take these webinars, I suggest you purchase them now before it is too late.  We do intend to create more calculations webinars in the future but there is no definite date set.  Click here then scroll down to see the webinars available, the expiration dates, and to purchase!

 

Until February ...
