Regional & Virtual Study Groups

Attending study groups, either in-person or virtually, is a great member benefit. These small group settings offer high level professional development and networking opportunities. Chaired by an ET/P® or BCET® member, study groups discuss topics of interest, bring in guests to share their expertise, talk through complex cases (following confidentiality protocols), share strategies and learning tools, network and build camaraderie. Non-members may attend a couple of study group sessions to learn more about AET and what we have to offer.
