Northcentral University Hosts Conference for Virtual Work Success, June 15 - 17

LA JOLLA, Calif., May 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- While pandemic restrictions are slowly easing this spring, virtual work is poised to stay. Companies both large and small have found their employees are just as productive – and often happier – working from home.

Managing a remote workforce has its opportunities, but it also has its challenges.

"Shaping the Future of Virtual Work: Innovative and Effective Practices for Virtual Work Success," an upcoming virtual conference hosted June 15 – 17, 2021 by Northcentral University's Center for the Advancement of Virtual Organizations, gives leaders the tools, tips and tricks to successfully run a virtual organization.

The conference will feature roundtable discussions, presentations, panel dialogues and networking sessions that offer insight into how each member of an organization can excel in the virtual workplace. Tracks include leadership and management, human resources, and technology and innovation. Business professionals, scholars, consultants and other leaders in the field will share ideas and emerging best practices to optimize perspectives and tactical approaches for success in the virtual work environment. 

Both the Society for Human Resource Management and the HR Certification Institute – two of the world's leading human resources associations – have approved the conference's HR track for professional development credits.

"Shaping the Future of Virtual Work" will be held virtually over three days, June 15 – 17. Registration is open at ncu.edu/cavo. The conference registration fee is $149, and an early bird rate of $99 will apply through May 15.
