Seminars & Workshops
Seminars &Workshops are held at least once a year in each main region (Europe/Africa, Asia Pacific and the Americas) so that most delegates will not have to travel long distances.
Seminars & Workshops are typically a mix of plenum sessions and detailed discussions into small groups of between eight and twelve persons under the guidance of a very experienced group leader.
FCI seminars & Workshops have another great value in addition to learning; they offer you great networking opportunities. With just one trip to the seminar location you will be able to meet several colleagues from many other FCI members, some of which are or will be your correspondents.
FCI seminars & workshops deal with specific topics relating to factoring or FCI in general.
