The interactive structure of the workshop allows students to learn both from each other and our experienced instructors. You will have the opportunity to ask questions in live Q&As after each main topic. Plus, you’ll enjoy a networking happy hour at the end of day one.
Whether you are new to the industry or are experienced and changing roles, our experts will help you gain the knowledge you need to succeed!
