ACCS Virtual In-School Management Conference 26th November 2020

Despite the challenges facing us all this year we are delighted to announce that the ACCS In-School Management Conference will be held on the 26th November 2020 and will take the form of a one-day virtual event. The ACCS In-School Management Task Group has organised an agenda for this year’s Conference which includes engaging presentations from Professor Luke O’Neill, School of Biochemistry and Immunology at Trinity College Dublin and Mr. Jim Steele, International Motivational Speaker and Leadership Coach.
