FREE WEBINAR on COVID-19 

During these trying times, we feel it's right to provide not only our STEM society members the resources they need to navigate the COVID-19 crisis, but also the broader community of association professionals. We are offering a very relevant and timely presentation on the legal strategies that you can take to guide your associations if their events are canceled or rescheduled. 

You can access the recorded webinar, COVID-19: Legal Strategies for Association Meetings presented by Jeff Tenebaum, Managing Partner at Tenebaum Law Group PLLC, in our webinar library.
