FAQs

Who is the Mastermind group for?
This group is for association professionals who are interested in making AI work for their association. There is no prerequisite knowledge required.  

While we strongly encourage 100% attendance across the sessions, we will also be recording the sessions and making them available in the online community for replay or if someone has to miss a meeting. 

Our only requirement is that you are curious and want to leverage this disruptive tech to benefit your association. Again, there is no prerequisite at all for knowledge of AI. 
How are the meetings scheduled?
  • Monthly meetings, for 75 minutes each. 10 of the meetings are virtual, and 2 of them are in person at the digitalNow and Innovation Hub conferences.
What if I'm joining later in the year?

We're happy to pro-rate the investment based on the number of months you'll be involved with our Mastermind Group. Please note that we cannot pro-rate the cost of the digitalNow Conference ticket included in your registration.
