Roundtable Description
The CSHEMA Professional Development Committee is calling on the CSHEMA community for round table topics! Round tables will differ from webinars in that they will be much more interactive. A person or a panel of presenters will lead the discussion primarily by asking questions of the group, there will be no PowerPoint presentations here! The audience should come prepared to debate and discuss the topic at hand, as well as bring their own experience(s), facts, and opinions.
