This is the first time we have been able to offer SPoR learning face to face in 2 years. Here is your opportunity to gather with some old and new friends and progress your education, learning and practice in SPoR.
We already have good numbers for the sessions with people coming from as far as Canada, Austria and Poland. You will also be able to share with Brian Darlington and find out how the roll out of SPoR across the Mondi Group is progressing. Brian’s books can be purchased here:
