Education & Training Webinars
In its continuing education and technology transfer efforts, NADCA has made available a number of webinars to provide additional opportunities for individuals to obtain information. These hour long presentations typically run every week and cover topics such as Safety, Results of Surveys and Studies, Various Processes, Economic Industry Data, Energy Conservation Efforts, NADCA R&D Research Results and New Technologies.
Attending a webinar is an excellent way to obtain vital information without the hassle or cost of travel. As an additional cost saving option we suggest purchasing one webinar login and gathering employees to view the presentation via projector! A webinar presentation will not only address important information on the topic but also provide adequate time for questions, answers, and discussion.
