SIG Spotlight Week was a Big Success!
SIG Spotlight Week was a success! A total of 134 meeting attendees were documented over the 10 SIG meetings held. Five of 10 Special Interest Groups who met are new to PCACAC this year. This illustrates the amount of diligent work that was done to produce the level of engagement seen throughout the week. For many attendees this was a first exposure to PCACAC and we are excited at the prospect of new members.
Our SIG Leads did an AMAZING job providing a mix of content in a collaborative virtual space resulting in meaningful conversation and connections. A huge THANK YOU to all who had a hand in making our first SIG Week possible!
If you have any questions about our SIGs or want to get involved, please contact Alison Weston.
