Watch the Webinars from Preview Week
Preview Week is a brand-new offering from ISSA, and it’s a great way to get a look at what kind of content will be on display at the actual event. ISSA’s Preview Week has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean you missed it. If you are attending the show, you have access to all the webinars.

Attend Workshops and Earn Certifications
Everyone in the JanSan industry has felt increasing pressure to prove their worth to building patrons, to clients, and to higher ups at our organization. There is an interest in being able to actively demonstrate how clean facilities are. Certifications can help inspire confidence that standards are high.
At ISSA, you have the chance to join interactive workshops that can help you take your own organization to the next level. Many of the workshops include the option to earn a new certification like the Master Environmental Services Executive, Certified Workloading Specialist and ARCSI House Cleaning Technician Training courses.
The interactive workshops and certifications do come with an additional cost, so choose wisely.
Visit Virtual Booths Before the Show
Once you arrive in Las Vegas, you will probably be busy until you leave. Lots of things to learn, people to see, products to purchase! But there are plenty of ways to participate in the show before you even leave home. Some exhibitors will have set up virtual booths before they set up their physical booths in the convention center.
Virtual booths will contain information about the company and the product they offer. You can get an early idea about what you might want to learn more about. To see what a virtual booth looks like, check out CleanTelligent Software’s here!
