BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! FCA BROWN BAG SERIES 2.0 Digitally Remastered! Grab your lunch and pull your chair up to your computer to hang out with your FCA colleagues. Each month we’ll explore a new topic relevant to our work. Using GoToWebinar, we’ll talk virtually with each other, allowing for conference call, video in some cases, and screen sharing. Each session will engage several panelists with experience in the topic, so come with questions AND ideas and thoughts based on your own work. Brown Bag programs will be more like a conversation with colleagues and less like a presentation or conference session. ► LEARN MORE: FCA Brown Bag Webpage
