Welcome to this week's edition of THE BUZZ! In this edition, you will find: Product Update Briefings and bbcon on-demand, upcoming events, featured jobs, helping out your fellow community members to earn bonus points in community, and more...

Happy Wednesday, Blackbaud Community!



 


Reminder: bbcon is On-Demand!



We can’t believe it’s already been a week since bbcon 2022!



Did you miss the sessions, chat and featured speakers? Don’t sweat a thing - sessions are now available on-demand on the bbcon website through December 9th if you would like to go back and re-watch, or if you weren’t able to attend all the sessions you wanted to. And if you weren’t able to attend at all, don’t worry, you can still register for the on-demand experience that also includes the Product Update Briefings that followed bbcon - all accessible from the bbcon website.



And if you haven't heard, bbcon 2023 will be hybrid, with an in-person experience happening in Denver, Colorado. Stay tuned for more details, including dates and registration information!
