This webinar is the latest in the ECPN series that seeks to address issues faced by emerging conservators. “Emerging conservators” are defined as those with 7 or fewer years of experience (which includes schooling and pre-program). ECPN strives to rotate webinar topics between those that are specifically pertinent to pre-program, graduate, and post-graduate emerging professionals.
