    • Why so many CE experiences feel irrelevant or draining.
    • The five qualities that make continuing education worth your time.
    • How to measure the ROI of CE—whether it helps your clients make breakthroughs, gives you fresh perspectives, or teaches you business skills that grow your practice.
    • Practical tips for evaluating your CE options so you invest in trainings that matter.
    • The future of CE and why flexibility, relevance, and engagement are key.

    I’ll also share the story of how attending a conference in Charleston sparked the idea for my Podcourses which are NBCC-approved, podcast-style continuing education you can listen to anywhere.
