FinPro Mini-Conference 21 – 22 October 2020

We won’t be travelling down to RACV Cape Schanck this year for our Annual Conference, but come on a virtual journey with us as we run a ‘mini-conference’, to learn, share and connect.

Participants can attend as many sessions as they like over Wednesday 21 and Thursday 22 October via our zoom links.  Registration is essential – refer the 3 different links for the different sessions below.

More detailed information will be shared next week – but for now, here are the basics:

Day 1   Wednesday 21 October 2020
