CWMA 2020 Conference 

Educator’s & Communicator’s
Virtual Roundtable

One of the hallmarks of the CWMA Conference are our very popular roundtables: informative discussions for specific groups within our industry.Each year we invite conference delegates and cast the invitation out to a wider group who would be interested in taking part — opening our doors to ensure everyone has can learn, discuss, and network.
