Just a quick reminder about our next Billing ‘Masterclass’ sessions – 10% discount for CLSA & LAPG members – Further discounts for multi-bookings – JRS Retainer clients qualify for half price tickets – Both are of benefit for first time billers, those with remaining doubts about the new schemes or just as a bit of […]
