Register for the 2008 New Director Academy at Home Office in Chicago!

I can attest to the value of the program both as a new director and an experienced director. The training is substantive and the networking opportunities are invaluable. I would highly recommend this program to any director looking for a way to improve their business skills.

Is this not incredible? I've got 5 recruits right now, but 3 need to be activated and one more signing next week. I am planning on going to the one in May. (march will be too busy with shows) So who's with me??
 
Congratulations Amanda!

In addition to all that I believe you should promote during the time that you will also get a $250 travel voucher so they will also pay to GET you there too!!

Your timing was great! I, like your director, am jealous. We had to pay for the academy ($100) plus hotel and transportation. I believe they provided one meal. AND it wasn't at Home Office - ANOTHER perk you get!!



Oops! I see the travel voucher information is in your post - but it DOES bear repeating!!
 
NDA was SO worth it when I paid for it. I wish I could go again!!!!! Have fun and CONGRATS!!!

I so totally agree! Best investment I've made in my business!! I have the distinction of being among the directors who were at the very first NDA.
