Next Tuesday, you have an opportunity to join your colleagues and hear from experts on the topic. The next NARMS webinar - Hiring and Firing: What you can and can not do - will be presented on Tuesday, October 27 at 1:00 pm CDT. This session is another in the continuing series of member educational offerings by NARMS-U. The NARMS Webinar Series is sponsored by Natural Insight and powered by the technology of ReadyTalk.

The hour-long event will feature Paula Cozzi Goedert and Jeremy B. Lewin of Barnes & Thornburg.
