ISA TORONTO SECTION

2008-2009   Dinner Meeting Schedule - Last Thursday of each month

If you want to learn, stay current, network with your peers,  or simply want to socialize and enjoy a good dinner,  then make sure to come out and join us at our next monthly dinner meeting. Usually held on the last Thursday of the month, we begin each meeting with our social & dinner between 5 - 7 PM followed by the main presentation soon after. Cost for attending just the dinner & social is only $10 (for ISA members) and there is no cost if you only want to attend the presentation only.

Make sure to visit this page often for full abstract & speaker bio.   If you have any suggestions for topics or speakers please contact the programs committee at office@isatoronto.org and don't forget to RSVP your spot so we can make room for everyone.
