Join us at the January ACC Employment & Labor Law Teleconference Meeting Tomorrow!

I have the honor of serving as the Association of Corporate Counsel’s Employment & Labor Law Network (ELLN) for the 2019-20 year.  This post is an open invite to in house counsel who are not already attending our ELLN monthly meetings to join us!

The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is a global bar association that promotes the interests of in-house counsel. ACC member attorneys work for corporations, associations, and other organizations and anyone engaged in the active practice of law and employed by organizations in either the private or public sector (and do not have or work for institutions with regulatory, enforcement or policymaking responsibilities).  If this fits your profile, you can join! (Law firm attorneys and others who hold themselves out to the public for the practice of law are not eligible for ACC membership.)

The cost is minimal, particularly compared to the opportunities! ELLN is an active global network within ACC of over 6,700 in-house legal counsel from every industry and every level of expertise and experience.

If you are an in-house counsel, and you are not an ACC member or an ELLN member (or even if you are and you haven’t joined us recently), we would love for you to attend our monthly teleconference and join our active community.

Our generous network sponsor, Jackson Lewis, will be presenting a brief “legal quick hit” on Employment Law in 2020: What to Know About the Year Ahead! Each of our subject matter area committees will present a short report, too.

If you haven’t joined our calls recently, or have never heard of ACC or ELLN, now is a great opportunity to check us out. Each month before our meeting, I will post our agenda here and elsewhere in social media as encouragement to join our merry bunch on the first Wednesday (generally) each month at 3 p.m. Eastern time.

Joining the call is as easy as clicking the big red button below and logging in or registering.
