Join Foley for virtual learning opportunities!
Foley has a rich history of supporting our clients with in-person CLE opportunities. While we value our in-person interactions, we understand the challenge of attending these events alongside other competing obligations. We are proud to bring you the third year of National CLE Week, a conference focused around virtual programming to offer you more flexibility on how you learn.
This year’s conference will take place Monday, November 10 thru Friday, November 14 with content being offered from 10:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. CT each day.
Please consider joining our virtual conference for a week of insightful speakers addressing key business and industry topics. You will have the opportunity to complete these courses from your home or office and may choose to attend any or all sessions offered. There is no cost to participate, however, pre-registration is required.
