WEBINARS

2nd Tuesday of most months – 1:00 to 2:00 p.m.

The PHRC is proud to announce their schedule of Webinars for the Fall 09 and Spring 10.  These programs are not designed to replace the classroom training, professional workshops or annual conference for which the PHRC has become so well known.  They are intended to supplement the learning opportunities that we already provide in a new, modern format that promotes the dissemination of timely, topic-specific information to large numbers of people in a cost-effective manner.

Webinars will give us the ability to interact in an educational setting with significantly larger numbers of participants representing diverse professions and trades, but who share common interests and concerns.

In the age of $4.00 a gallon gasoline, and increasingly hectic schedules, webinars provide you an opportunity to learn about a very focused topic in a one hour time period without leaving your office or wherever you may be that has internet connection capabilities.
