MCAN Membership Conferences
MCAN holds three conferences a year, in various cities, during the months of January, May and September. These events include informative workshops, a principals’ meeting and plenty of time to swap ideas and concerns.
For many members of MCAN, the network becomes an extended family. It helps them serve their clients better, run their agencies more efficiently and enjoy the unique camaraderie that comes from friendships with knowledgeable, spirited, non-competing professionals.
