The Survey

We host a monthly one-hour webinar series covering a wide variety of construction, insurance and legal industry topics. This year, we conducted a survey to find out your favorites from the past, interest for future programs we planned, and suggestions for programs that we haven't thought of yet.

Below is a complete list of all our presentations, broken into five categories. Below that is a list of "Old Favorites" (most popular), Key Learning (most important to us), and the list potential topics we considered covering this year.

The results are in! We published the webinar schedule for 2016 in January, and we are really excited about the content. Thank you all for the help in deciding.
