CoSIDA2020 Virtual Convention Educational Lounge

Return to 2020 Virtual Convention Home Page

The popular CoSIDA Educational Lounges return in July 2020! The Educational Lounges have been part of our in-person convention the last several years. This year, six sessions will be offered as part of our #CoSIDA2020 virtual convention programming.

These six sessions will take place the first three weeks of July on Tuesdays (July 7, 14 and 21) and Thursdays (July 9, 16 and 23). Each session will be live at 2:00 PM (ET) and will take place on Zoom. There are NO LIMITS to the number of Virtual Educational Lounges you may attend! As they are Zoom sessions, there also are no limits on the number of attendees per session.

An on-demand replay of each session will be added on this page when available.
