2024 Institute & Expo – Invest in Your Staff with Institute Education
Investing in their professional development is the most impactful way to retain your current staff.
It’s not too late to add staff to your organization’s registration or register them for one of four intensive sessions covering survey preparation, teamwork and communication, food code, and LEAN Six Sigma Process Improvement for Leaders.
Your organization/service site pays a flat registration fee that includes attendance for all staff at that site for all five days of education (in-person Feb. 7-8 and virtual Feb. 27-29). Mix and match – anybody can attend a single session, attend every day, or anything in between. Plus, the virtual sessions and keynote presentations are recorded and available on-demand through April 30.
The 2024 Institute & Expo is Feb. 7-8 in-person with a virtual component Feb. 27-29.
Regular registration fees currently apply. Add $100 if registering your organization/service site on or after Jan. 31, 2024.
