The AC21
Virtual Series

June 8-30, 2021

Join AIRA in June for the AC21 Virtual Series, an in–depth virtual conference comprising a series of webinars that will present the complete education program we planned for the live conference. The AC21 Virtual Series offers you the opportunity to participate in both preconference programs – Bankruptcy Taxation and Financial Advisors’ Toolbox – 17 panel presentations on some of the hottest and most relevant topics in bankruptcy and restructuring, plus three keynote presentations.

From the comfort of your home or office, participants have the opportunity to earn up to 40.8 CPE credits. The AIRA will seek 31.75 general CLE credit hours in 60-minute-hour states, and 38.2 general CLE credit hours in 50-minute states. Credit hours are estimated and are subject to each state’s approval and credit rounding rules.

New this year, the AIRA Distinguished Fellows Program is accepting nominations to recognize the significant contributions of AIRA’s senior members. To learn more about the program and nominations, visit the AIRA Distinguished Fellows Program page.
