Here are the industry events and webinars I'm aware of for May 1 - July 31, 2025. I don't have anything to do with any of these from a planning perspective, so please reach out to the individual event producers with any questions. I generally don't include training courses in this list.
Also note that 20 ARMA Chapters have come together for ARMA Spring Seminar Mania (SSM) V. The individual events are listed on the applicable dates below, and "Spring Seminar Mania" is added to the ARMA chapter name to denote the event as part of SSM. There will be prize drawings for those who attend one or more SSM event. You can find the entire list of events and additional details about the prize drawings at https://armamilwaukee.org/spring-seminar-mania-2025/
If you know of a webinar or other event during this period that is focused on IG, RM, DM, AI, etc. that's not listed, let me know here or at jesse.wilkins@athroconsulting.com. No charge to list your event or to access the list.
Vendors, other associations, consultants, etc., your events are all welcome as long as the event is educational and not completely self-serving, e.g., no demos. If you are interested in listing your solution-specific webinar or event, please contact me about placing and highlighting your event.
