Evening Membership Meetings: 

Over the course of the year, the LSPA holds nine member meetings either in person or as live webinars. The in-person meetings are popular networking and educational events, regularly attended by over 100 members and others. Our live webinar meetings are also available for sponsorship; sponsors have the opportunity to speak on camera to all attendees and show a few slides. Both in-person and webinar formats offer an hour presentation from invited guest speakers on a broad range of topics. Typically, one technical or regulatory credit is offered.
