Post-Conference Sessions for Council Leaders

The post-conference sessions, also known as “Council Leadership Day”, will now begin on November 15, 2023 and conclude at approximately 12:00 pm on November 16, 2023. Our time together will include "learning pods" (small, topic-based workshops where council leaders share topic-based experiences, best practices, and learn from one another), sessions for councils of like-size, a new evening reception honoring the councils receiving annual awards, and additional time during Wednesday evening to spend time with other leaders. 

Who should attend?  The day is for volunteer leaders and staff executives of estate planning councils affiliated with NAEPC.  NAEPC recommends sending at least one officer at the vice-president level or under and the council's executive.
