Top 5 Must-Attend Virtual Conferences for Customer Success Professionals

For many of us, 2020 will be known as the year business conferences moved from convention halls to online. The reality is that virtual events will be the norm going forward, at least in the short term. For those of us who love the in-person conference experience, this adjustment is tough.

There is, however, a silver lining. Virtual events present uniquely flexible opportunities for Customer Success professionals to brush up on skills and to learn from peers, albeit from the safety of being behind a webcam. With interactive online formats and many events offering recordings on-demand, it’s never been easier to squeeze in professional development opportunities during these virtual conferences

Don’t let QBRs and Zoom meetings get in the way of your career development. Check our list of five upcoming Virtual Conferences taking place in the remainder of 2020 that should be on your radar.
