    Education

    NAPM-NCA offers many different educational events each year. See the Calendar for a complete listing of our events.

    Early Bird Seminar
    Before each Dinner Meeting we offer at least one Early Bird educational seminar. This one and a half hour presentation covers a purchasing topic in depth and often provides ideas that members can use in their daily work. You can also gain continuing education units (CEUs) for your participation in this program.

    Dinner Meeting
    Each Dinner Meeting begins with cocktails and networking. The business meeting includes any affiliate business and the evening's dinner speaker. The speaker's half hour presentation covers a purchasing topic on a high level and often provides food for thought that members can delve deeper into later on their own. Dinner follows the speaker and is complimentary to all NAPM-NCA members. This time is a great opportunity to network with your colleagues.
