Building a sustainable path forward for your organization requires engaging members in flexible, novel ways while putting leading-edge technologies to work. One use of technology is to transform your association's digital spaces into vibrant communities. Join Hannah Ashcroft with Tradewing to learn more about how online communities can help you build outstanding experiences for your members. In addition, learn about WSAE's Professional Interest Categories/Communities (PICs) that will enable you to align your specific interests and preferences and address your evolving needs as an association professional.

Today's sponsorship strategies require knowing your sponsors - understanding who they are, what they want to achieve, and how partnership with you makes that possible. Join Sylvia Allen of Allen Consulting and your colleagues to discuss how associations are finding ways to deliver more value to sponsors. Topics to be explored include matchmaking, bundling, centralized sponsorship, and more.

This month WSAE's Shop Talk focuses on demystifying the transition from Universal Analytics to Google Analytics 4 (GA4). If you are seeking to maintain your data tracking capabilities, this session is a must-attend event.
