NTPA is excited to announce the launch of the NTPA Summit (formerly known as the Tests and the Rest Summit) which is FREE for all NTPA members. If you have never attended one of these amazing training events, do not miss out! Why do we call this event a Summit? Conferences that last all day and revolve around lots of lectures have their place, particularly when colleagues can concentrate in one location. But for remote learning purposes, we have reimagined the standard conference as a focused online summit rich with opportunities for interaction and collaboration:
PRESENTATION (11:00 am -12:00 pm EST): One presentation by a relevant expert followed by moderated Q&A and discussion.
PANEL (12:00 pm - 12:30 pm EST): Three or more experts answering a series of topical questions with moderated Q&A
BREAKOUT (12:30 pm -1:30 pm EST): Everyone is broken into smaller workgroups to answer certain questions and contribute to shared expertise and best practices.TOPIC: Building Your Business Bedrock: Crafting Comprehensive Standard Operating Procedures for Growth and Peace of Mind
PRESENTATION: Whether you are preparing to add to your team, scale, sell, or have an emergency plan, a robust Standard Operating Procedure repository is essential. Learn a variety of easy to implement methods for solopreneurs and teams to build out your SOPs so you can sleep better and take your business to the next level.
PANEL: Tell Me More About Your Operations
BREAKOUT: What's Working And Not Working With Your Operations?
This event will take place on the NTPA zoom. Do remember: this event if free for all NTPA members. Non-NTPA members will need to complete their $30 PayPal payment (to ) before they are allowed to attend the event.
