Collaborative Conversations
CHART's Collaborative Conversations are small virtual meetings for CHART Members to video conference to discuss best practices for current training issues. These are informal, virtual discussion groups to facilitate open discussions and networking for members. There is no presentation. To keep topics current, topics will be posted only a few weeks in advance, so check the schedule frequently.
SCHEDULE of Upcoming Collaborative Conversations
Collaborative conversations are open to CHART Members only. They are general discussion groups, not presentations, for members to share best practices, concerns, issues and help each other find solutions. If you register, please try and participate. Unlike a webinar, your presence will be missed if you are unable to join last minute.
Some discussion groups focus on CHART's new affinity group, or business resource group, topics that members have chosen in their member profiles. Affinity groups are voluntary groups comprised of members who have common interests. They play a vital role in articulating, promoting and supporting the needs and goals of their various communities and interests. Members do NOT need to belong to the affinity group to participate in the discussion groups.
Specific topics may be posted as they get closer if we need to narrow the scope of the discussion. If you are interested in the general affinity goup topic, you should add the affinity group to your member profile so you receive notifications of upcoming content related to that subject matter.
