A great explanation of the federal CARES relief Act - A 1 hour Must Listen

  • 1.  A great explanation of the federal CARES relief Act - A 1 hour Must Listen

    Posted 04-02-2020 08:50 PM
    The AIA conducted an amazing presentation of the federal CARES relief package today. If you, or someone else from your firm was not on the call, I have included a link to the recorded content below and I highly encourage you, especially if you are a small practice, to take an hour and listen. The relief that will be provided under this bill is in high demand and the AIA believes the funds will run out. Therefore they are recommending that your practice apply for relief ASAP!

    The presenters did an excellent job of laying out who qualifies for what, when to apply and how to apply. There is no charge to view the slides and listen to the content. You do not even have to be an AIA member. This means you are free to share it with your non-AIA coworkers and architectural firms. To access the presentation, any non-AIA member will need to first setup a free-of-charge account on the AIA.org website. If you have any trouble accessing the file or setting up an AIA.org free account, email me for assistance.

    Here's the link: https://aiaces.adobeconnect.com/punfv84sflsy?session=na12breez7rhft3ngr34mcv4e

    Sincerely.

    Looks like just what I'm looking for. 

    Unfortunately, It loads up and then stalls - a complete FAIL!! I've tried it a number of times in different ways.

    Any thoughts on how to see this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!!
