Learning Events

Take advantage of Network Training Workshops, Seminars, and Learning Circles to acquire valuable information and techniques to start or deepen your organization's practices in sustainability purchasing. Qualified facilitators will lead you through interactive discussions, case studies, and, in the half-day workshops, strategic problem-solving exercises on a variety of sustainability purchasing topics.

 

In this space you'll also find special events in which the Network is involved.

 

Workshops

Workshops are typically a half-day morning event that includes continental breakfast and time for connecting with your peers. Although they are structured to provide content and speakers, the focus is toward sharing the purchasing practices, successes, and challenges of the participants in the room.


Special Events


Learning Circles

Learning circles create an opportunity for participants to engage in a small group dialogue with their peers. They  run for 1-1/2 hours in the morning and are offered at a minimal cost. Participants arrive prepared to discuss their organization's purchasing practices and challenges on specific topics.


Seminars


Seminars are shortened versions of our half-day workshops, designed to provide a grounding in the subject matter through a focus on content delivery.
