Natural Gas Champions

Event Overview

As the natural gas industry faces a great deal of increased attention, one thing is abundantly clear: As a nation, the more we use renewables, the more we need natural gas to ensure a strong energy grid.

With empirical data and industry trends, SGA offers this fact-filled and action-packed 4-hour program to prepare our industry professionals to respond to questions about the industry. Now is the time, more than ever, to pull together and ensure we are telling a compelling and fact-based story to explain the critical role that natural gas plays in a  low carbon future. This workshop features the most recent information from respected sources to equip you to better understand the core basics of the natural gas industry, and more importantly, how to engage in those casual yet crucial conversations.

This workshop has already been presented to over 1,000 employees from more than 100 companies. The 2021 workshops include updates and new data on many subjects including renewables, electrification, and the role of natural gas in the future.

Successful completion of this webinar and assignments will make you eligible for Natural Gas Champion digital badge and certificate.

Attendees will receive 4 Professional Development Hours upon completion.

This event includes two 2-hr sessions held on two separate days:

August 24 & 25: 8 am – 10 am (Central time).
