Important Workshops Taking Place During the 2020 Restaurants Canada Show:

One of the first things you learn after entering the restaurant industry is that there is always something new you can learn. There are several educational workshops scheduled to take place during the 2020 Restaurants Canada Show. These workshops provide you with a one-stop source for learning about:

• New legislation that will impact how you do business
• New employee training methods
•  Cooking tips and ideas
• Nutritional health
• Different ideas about how to keep customers coming back for
  more
• Ideas for how to streamline your business
•  And more!

The biggest challenge involved with the workshop offerings is figuring out how to attend all of them, while still having an opportunity to take in all the great trade show exhibits. 

Pro-Tip: When attending the workshops, make sure you take notes. There's a very big chance that when you're wandering the showroom floor, you can run into one of the speakers, and you will be able to have all your questions answered quickly, while also making a valuable networking contact.
