Information

 

Join us for our discussion on the value of Professional Certifications and Association Participation! 

 

We will be hosting an interactive session designed to help you navigate the landscape of professional credentials and the true meaning of "networking."

Rather than a standard lecture, this presentation will draw upon the collective experience of the room to define the real value of active participation in professional associations. We will also conduct a candid review of various Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) certifications and licenses. We will discuss which credentials can boost your career, and—just as importantly—when you might not need them at all.

 

Upon registering, you will be emailed a confirmation with a digital ticket. This can be accessed under the "My e-ticket" button on your confirmation email. Please have this ticket available in paper or digitally on the day of the meeting.
