The Loss Control Experience Symposium

October 7-8, 2008 - Chicago, Illinois

As loss control/risk control professionals, there is a lot that rests on your shoulders – reduce ultimate loss exposure, develop positive business relationships and impact account retention, just to name a few. But the business of managing risk is changing. The global marketplace, new technologies and a shifting workforce are just some of the changes we’ll need to adapt to.

Help prepare yourself for the changes ahead by joining us in Chicago on October 7th and 8th for this day and a half ASSE symposium, hosted at the headquarters of CNA insurance. Through keynotes from leaders in the field, in-depth breakout sessions and interactive panel discussions, we’ll focus on the loss control/risk control profession, our practice and the emerging trends and opportunities that lie ahead!
