In international development, knowledge is key to making a difference - for your clients, your business and your career. At Devex, our goal is to help you do good, and do it well. That’s why we aid your business development and job search by bringing you the latest opportunities, news, analysis and insider tips from industry experts around the globe.
Much of that information is available on the Devex website. But we know that sometimes, what you really need is personal advice from someone who’s in-the-know. That’s why Devex hosts regular events and online webinars, like the one featured above. Webinars allow you to ask questions and receive answers right then and there from seasoned experts working with Devex and some of the world’s leading development institutions.
Participation in our webinars is generally free for people who have created a personal profile on the Devex website, although at times, we open up these events to a broader audience. Similarly, webinar recordings are made available to the Devex community via our website.
