2019 WESTERN REGION

OPERATIONS TRAINING AGENDA

This conference is geared towards learning a best practice approach to processing core BBB services across two vendors. We encourage you review this agenda and come prepared to ask questions. Presenters are your colleagues, known in the system, as leaders within their respective fields.

​

We encourage you to meet your peers and gain mentors from this program. If you have more than one person from your BBB attending, we ask that you sit with other BBBs to share as much information as possible with others at the conference.
