About Special Interest Groups
Special Interest Groups (SIG) are an online group discussion. They are run via Zoom and are more communication and idea exchange than training presentations. This interactive environment allows governance professionals to share experiences, professional knowledge, and learn from one another. SIGs will be driven by attendee input and may be spontaneous and creative. Occasionally breakout sessions may be included.
