VA Section Webinar Series
VA Section is pleased to offer learning opportunities to members, such as this VA Section webinar series.
One of many perks to being a member of Div. 18 is that members can receive one hour of free continuing education credit by attending the live webinar. The one-hour webinars take place on the first Thursday of the month at 1 p.m. Eastern/10 a.m. Pacific.
VA Section members will receive registration information via the VA Section listserv approximately one month prior to each webinar. If you are a member of Div. 18, please send an email request to join the VA Section listserv.
