2010 ARCS Evening Updates Series - FREE FOR MEMBERS FROM 1 JULY 2010!

After the great success of the Evening Update series in 2009, we are please to provide you with a preliminary scheduled for 2010. Evening updates are intended to appeal to a broad audience and provide updates on important developments, trends and changes in our professional environment. They are not intended to be technically specific and not an in-depth training opportunity. They are a great way of staying in touch with what is happening and networking with your colleagues after the event. These updates are generally scheduled for Monday’s (typically the last Monday of the Month) at the ARCS Business Office starting at 4pm with networking starting at 5pm. For those not based in Sydney, the webinar technology has been successfully integrated in the ARCS Business Office, and when given permission by the presenter, evening updates will be broadcast to a national audience. The scheduled topics and dates for sessions in 2010 thus far are listed below:
