Pressing Matters: ACA Monthly Webinar Series
Pressing Matters: ACA Monthly Webinar Series
One of the most consistent pieces of feedback we hear after CiderCon® is that the learning shouldn’t stop when the conference ends. While the annual gathering remains a cornerstone of our community, we know many cider professionals are looking for more opportunities to stay connected, ask questions, and keep building their knowledge throughout the year.
This year the American Cider Association launched a new monthly webinar series to provide practical education for cider makers and industry professionals year-round.
Held on the Second Thursday of each month at 10:00 AM PT/1:00 PM ET (webinars with a tasting component might be hosted later in the day), these live sessions will feature expert speakers, practical topics, and opportunities for Q&A. Each webinar will also be recorded and archived, creating a growing library of resources that members can access anytime.
For ACA members, the webinars will be available for $5 per session, while non-members can participate for $20. This gives unlimited access to the material in perpetuity.
The Member Discount can be found in the Resource Hub.
