Mo-Kan Chapter
Professional Development
Speakers
Outside speakers present various topics each month. Topics focus on professional development, including some personal development issues to enhance members’ individual ‘brand’. If you are interested in presenting at one of our meetings or know of a good candidate, please send an email to ABWAMoKan@gmail.com. Visit the Events page for past and upcoming programs!
Conferences & Seminars
Annual conferences, both on a national and a regional level, are sponsored by the national ABWA organization. Seminar topics include both professional development as well as personal growth. The chapter helps subsidize some of the costs of registration for members attending the conferences.

Fall: The 2025 National Women's Leadership Conference will be held in Portland, Maine, November 12-15th!
