3 Affordable Ways to Learn About Mobility

Written by Stacy Baker | February 7, 2019

Do you want to know more about mobility, but your training budget has been slashed? Mobility training is an invaluable resource to both newer corporate contacts and existing ones. Relocation is an ever-changing industry - from taxes to technology - and these resources are a great, budget-friendly way to stay informed. In the 16th century, Sir Francis Bacon is credited for coining the phrase, “knowledge itself is power.” While this is a dated quote, the concept never loses its validity. Knowledgeable mobility programs are efficient and, in turn, more successful.

 Below are three ideas to keep you in the know without spending a lot of dough!

  1. Worldwide ERC's Mini Series Networking Events: free to corporate attendees, these events are a great way to meet key professionals in the mobility community, ask questions, share ideas, and make valuable long-lasting connections. The next mini-series will be held in alliance with Fragomen Worldwide on March 20, 2019 in London. Click here for details.
