CNAM Webinar

CNAM – Asset Management Awareness Workshop

Due to the popularity and demand for CNAM’s AM Awareness Workshop we are taking the session online! 

These sessions will be delivered virtually in an online classroom to allow people to attend the course without having to travel. A digital copy of the learning materials will be sent to you. Also, you have the option to request a hard copy be mailed to you in advance of the sessions.

This workshop is appropriate for elected officials, municipal and organizational staff who want to have a better understanding of:
  • What asset management is
  • Why it should be undertaken and its benefits to your community
  • Tangible steps to begin implementation
To make the session as interactive as possible, attendees will be encouraged to use their webcams and take part in discussions just as if it was a face-to-face session.

Our regular 1-day course will be split into two half-day sessions – your registration covers both sessions.

Session A – Intro to AM and Benefits
Thursday, February 13, 2020
9am to 12.30pm PST / 12pm to 3.30pm EST

Session B – How to get started
Thursday, February 20, 2020
9am to 12.30pm PST / 12pm to 3.30pm EST

Please note our pricing structure has changed.
  • $145 per connection. This allows you to have a small group of people in the room with you!  A digital copy of the materials will be sent to you in advance.
  • $100 Printing Package and Certificate (optional). We will ship a printed binder and a custom named certificate to you. Must be ordered 14 days in advance of course dates.
This is relevant for all municipalities, regardless of your size and location, or whether or not you have made any progress with asset management to date. The face-to-face session will enable participants to connect with peers, network with other municipalities who practice asset management at varying levels, and provide a safe environment conducive to knowledge sharing and collaborating.
Spaces are limited to ensure an effective learning environment. Register today to secure your spot!
