All-day Program

This is our Chapter's seventh, all-day Biennial Institute. We've carefully selected topical material on important issues of interest to in-house counsel with presentations by expert speakers. We're hoping this program proves to be the highlight of the year providing over 1/2 of the year's CLE requirement including ethics, and substance abuse credit. All presented at Prestonwood Country Club with a lovely breakfast, lunch, refreshments at the breaks, and a networking reception after the event to make this day enjoyable while being highly educational.
