Industry Professional Development Pathways

There are countless paths to success in our industry and any other. While there are no guarantees in career development, there's a general consensus that those who participate in professional development - and those who invest in the development of their teams - are going to report higher levels of engagement at work. While there are a lot of opportunities available, the common barriers tend to be: time away from the office, cost, and ability to communicate ROI. The IFPA leadership development portfolio addresses each of these concerns, offering professional development through an industry lens that provides unmatched networking no matter the career level. Join us for this Virtual Town Hall as participants from each of the portfolio programs discuss their experiences and the value of participating in industry professional development experiences.
