The goal of the 2020 Conference is to program for all four generations that are currently working in our field. As a profession, we need to program for the future by being entrenched in the present while utilizing skills and lessons learned from our past.
Being aware of our proximity to New York City, the Conference Committee is working on planning exciting sightseeing opportunities and CEU worthy offsite trips. Plans are being made for a variety of offerings which may include the 9-11 Memorial, the Ranger/Knicks training facility, the Rockefeller Estate, Central Park and Yankee / Tigers ballgame. Conference room rates will be extended for those interested in making this a destination conference.
From our program to the vendors, off-site socials to on-site events, every effort is being made to make your time with us here in Westchester a fulfilling experience both personally and professionally.
