Educational Programs
While there is always something to learn at ISES Metro Detroit meetings, our Education and Programming committee strives to produce 4-6 meetings a year with strong educational content. Topics include disciplines from the CSEP program as well as those topics professionals need to be aware of - liquor licensing, insurance, contracts and more. 

In addition to meetings focused on educational content, we strive to provide the following for a well-rounded and valuable meeting schedule for our membership.

• National Speakers
• Networking
• Charitable Fund Raising
• Product/Member Showcase
