Corporate & Professional Development
“The COP Master Class and the pursuit of the designation was an eye opening experience to the large world of outsourcing. I gained what I aimed for and more through these endeavors. For those that are looking to join a network of professionals in an ever changing industry and the desire to have a pulse on the latest strategies to share with their vendors and customers alike, look no further.”
—Joe Tocco, COP, 2nd VP, Cassidy Turley
