Engage365 Shirts Travel to Vancouver for MPI WEC

By Christopher Uschan

MPI World Education Congress (WEC) attendees get the first crack at the coolest T-shirts in Canada.

Omnipress, the organization behind Engage365, is giving out Team Engage365 shirts to WEC attendees. But wait, the shirts aren’t free. WEC attendees must agree to be video recorded while telling us a little about themselves and answering one random question. How easy is that? 30 seconds of fame for a shirt!

Be on the lookout for these short videos next week.

Get the complete Engage365/MPI shirt details at the Omnipress blog.

Want a shirt, but can’t make it to MPI? Perhaps we’ll see you in LA at the ASAE Annual Meeting.
