Lunch & Learns

 

Lunch & Learns are 90-minute programs that include lunch, an opportunity for networking, and a discussion by speakers who are experts in the session topic. Each session is $30 for Active LPBC Alumni and $35 for guests.

We hold four Lunch & Learns throughout the year. We bring in expert panelists who speak on timely topics that affect our community. 

This series is a great way for alumni to continue their education after graduating or for those not involved in LPBC to see what our organization is all about. 

We invite you to join us for the next Lunch & Learn!
