    REGISTER HERE!

    NJASA has designed and expanded The Power of Legal Series into a 6-Part Series.  The goal is to attract more members to attend by shortening the sessions to 60 minutes and provide a focused, specific legal discussion for our members. To that end, NJASA has designed a comprehensive professional development series listed below.

    All sessions will be virtual, via Zoom.  ACTIVE NJASA MEMBERS ATTEND SESSIONS AT NO COST.  NON-MEMBERS PAY $215 PER SESSION.
