ACA International has new webinars planned on accounts receivable management (ARM) industry trends and regulations as well as Core Curriculum to help members achieve ACA’s designations. Here are the webinars planned for the first part of May.
Cost-savings tip: If your company has multiple people attending ACA’s webinars, consider investing in the All-Access Training Zone, which includes bundled education from ACA at one low price.
Core Curriculum
Core seminars help you earn designations available through ACA. Our newly launched Designation Express education vehicle allows members to work toward designations on a consistent weekly schedule and network with ACA leaders and members.
