IFFPS::Meetings & Events

Global Speakers Network Events
In conjunction with national member association events, the GSN provides special pre-event programs for international speakers. When invited by the planning team and president of an association, the GSN will present programs targeted to the unique educational requests of those members who speak internationally. This partnership between the GSN and member associations allows event planning teams to expand their offerings without incurring additional costs or dedicating time to additional program planning for the needs of the international speaker.
