Rip it up and start again?

In June 2015 after a successful trial period, Liverpool Law Society discontinued providing hardcopy support materials for seminars and commenced providing them electronically only.

This meant delegates would;

ü Receive materials ahead of the event

ü Access them on a device, wherever, whenever

ü Store and share them more easily

ü Print to their own preference

Overall this has worked well for the delegates, the society and the environment.

Now that the process is fully embedded, we have decided to explore the practicalities of doing this for our conferences too, which at present are still printed materials, contained inside a bulky ring-binder, received on the day.

So, commencing September 2019, we will be issuing all the materials for our conferences electronically only. As with seminars, delegates will receive an email in advance of the event, which will contain a link to access the documents.

This will apply to all conferences held during September, October, November & December 2019.

At the end of this period, we will consider all feedback received and then will make a decision, as to whether the practice will be made permanent commencing 2020.

I do hope you will understand and support us in taking this step forward.
