ACC Oregon is presenting it’s first ever all day CLE symposium on October 24.  This free all day event will take place at Vestas’ beautiful U.S. headquarters in Portland’s Pearl District and will feature several CLEs along with breakfast, lunch and happy hour for all participants. 

The symposium will feature CLES presented by Fisher Phillips, Holland & Knight, Exterro and Littler.  The topics will cover political discussions in the workplace, trade secrets, data security and whistleblowing.  At least 4 credit hours (and hopefully more) will be available for those attending the symposium.  

Space is limited.  ACC Oregon members will have first priority to register for the event through September 30.  If space is still available, we will open up registration on October 1 to all in-house counsel in Oregon and SW Washington regardless of membership in the ACC. 

Everyone who registers for the entire day will receive validated parking or a Lyft pass to be used toward transportation on the day of the symposium.
