As the world gradually (and cautiously!) reopens after the past two years, we optimistically predict that 2022 will be like no other year in recent memory. Companies and industry professionals will go bold in exploring new ideas and pursuing previously unseen opportunities to bring new and innovative technologies to market. And, with supply chain workarounds taking effect, commercial and consumer markets will bounce back in ways that would have been the stuff of fantasies pre-pandemic.
In this promising time, your ongoing personal efforts to refresh or expand your professional and technical knowledge are more important than ever. So, as 2022 begins, we’ve once again queried training resources throughout our industry to provide you with an overview of free or affordable solutions to meet your training goals in the new year. In this article, you’ll find sources of compliance-related seminars, workshops, and other types of training, offered live, including both virtual and in-person options, as well as pre-recorded webinars and on-demand training offerings.
The following information is current as we go to press (early December 2021). But please note that dates for live in-person seminars, workshops, and symposia provided here are subject to change. So check the listed websites for the most up-to-date information on scheduling. Finally, we invite you to submit updates and corrections as well as suggestions for additional listings for our Events section. Please send your comments to us at editor@incompliancemag.com.
