At this virtual event, education abroad professionals from across the state are invited to learn more about the evolving legal landscape of education abroad from William “Bill” Hoye, Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer, and General Counsel at IES Abroad. Through the discussion of relevant, real-world examples from education abroad-related litigation and case law, attendees will gain insights into important health, safety, and risk management considerations and best practices.
Part 2: Pool-side Chat and Practical Strategies (1:00 PM – 2:00 PM)
