What are prior attendees of this seminar saying?
“It was a comprehensive look at Public Procurement. It covered everything from top to bottom. Paul Brennan was very knowledgeable.”
“Very relevant to my job. I gained a ton of reference materials and learned where to find extremely useful information.”
“Very detailed on the exact laws that we need to do our jobs, one of the best classes I have participated in for SAMPO.”
“Although it is nice to go to an in-person meeting, I really liked the aspect of being able to attend remotely. I felt it was more interactive and allowed me to get all the excellent information without distraction. I think it's also a plus that organizations from all over the state can attend without the added cost of travel, lodging, etc.”
