During the COVID-19 Crisis, the ACCJ has shifted its focus to keeping members informed and connected through a series of virtual events and webinars.

These events, dubbed The ACCJ Business Continuity Network, have become an invaluable source of information and advice for members. Guest speakers have included U.S. Embassy staff and medical, legal, finance and HR professionals.

Most importantly, the lively roundtable discussions and Q&A sessions have created a forum for members to help members during these challenging times.
