Executive Development Seminars
Executive Development Seminar
Next series scheduled on Thursday, 15 March, 2012 in Brussels.
It was in early 2007 that EPTDA started recognizing the growing importance of education in its industry.
During the 2007 Annual Convention in Monaco, we asked for live feedback on the feasibility of having EPTDA's very own learning platform to provide personal development opportunities to our members. About 65% of our members voted in favour of this initiative - EPTDA greatly values its members' and leaders' feedback and acts on it too.
After having launched its very own and first Executive Development Seminar successfully at its All Committees' Days meeting in March 2008 in Rome, EPTDA is continuing its series of Executive Development Seminars, presenting highly topical themes related to the PT/MC industry and business in general.
