Attendees will have an unique opportunity to network with colleagues from across the country while learning about a broad range of cooperative topics and sectors. Evening social events include a Chicago style pizza party and a gathering at Beermiscuous, a cooperatively owned beer cafe. Select sessions will provide MCLE credits in Illinois and California.
