Recent Presentations
There are many benefits to membership.
Most weeks on Saturday and Mondays or Wednesdays ISSS members meet for a couple of hours to attend a mini-symposium, webinar, share knowledge, conduct roundtables, work on Special Integration Groups, and other activities.
Below are some recent presentations. Following presentations there is a question and answer period and general conversation. Shown here are just the presentations. Members have access to the full presentation and the question and answer session following the presentation by logging in to this website.
