About the Event
Due to technical issues with our Virtual Platform, some GWCO Congress 2020 attendees were not able to access certain sessions during the September event. Additionally, some attendees were not able to meet time requirements to gain credit for certain courses. GWCO is now providing all Congress registrants with the opportunity to attend repeats of Sessions 1, 4, and 17. We will be hosting these GWCO Congress: CE Make-Up Sessions on November 21, 2020.
