Business Beyond Disasters | Information Sessions
The NSW Reconstruction Authority has extended the below invitation to REGIONAL ARCHITECTURE ASSOCIATION members:
The NSW Reconstruction Authority (RA) is committed to working with Northern Rivers businesses and non-profit organisations to boost business resilience and the local economy.
As part of this we are delivering Business Beyond Disasters – a new, free online learning opportunity for Northern Rivers businesses, tailored to boost resilience and economic adaptation.
Local information sessions
We invite you to join us at an information session near you, to find out about the new Business Beyond Disasters program and the valuable benefits it offers.
The information session will cover everything businesses need to know about the Business Beyond Disasters training – why it’s important, how it works and when you can get started.
This is a great chance to connect with your local business community over light refreshments to hear about this new approach for business resilience. Representatives from key agencies and emergency services will be at the information sessions to talk with, and we will share updates on adaptation planning from the NSW Reconstruction Authority (RA).
Business Beyond Disasters information session dates, locations and booking links are below.
