A workshop series every spring and fall

The Arcata Chamber is committed to offering quality professional development opportunities both online and in person.

We offer a workshop series each spring and fall in an effort to be a catalyst for local businesses to evolve and prosper. Rotating facilitators share best practices and trends, and attendees have the opportunity to meet each other over common interests and concerns.

Thanks to our members and our partnership with the SBDC (Small Business Development Center), these workshops are currently free to the public.

Let us know what you’re thinking about, and what keeps you up at night, and we will check it out together in a workshop! Upcoming sessions are listed on the Chamber calendar.
