EPISODE 22

What to Expect at NFDA 2020 Virtual Convention

The biggest convention in funeral service is going virtual this year and we asked Anthony Kaniuk and Troy Blewett to give us an overview of the convention and what we can expect.

Surprisingly, other than the obvious fact that it's virtual, the same opportunities exist for education, CE credits, networking and, of course, the exhibit hall. The staff at NFDA has put a lot of work into making this a great experience for the attendees and exhibitors, and we are all looking forward to it. On this episode we talk about:

1.) What to expect from a virtual NFDA convention

2.) How to get your CE hours
3.) Getting the most value by including your staff that otherwise might not attend an in-person event
