DC Event: FTC Legal Services Quarterly Brownbag
Check out the following message from the Federal Trade Commission:
The FTC will host a Legal Services Quarterly Brownbag at 12:30pm on Thursday, March 31, 2016 at the FTC’s offices in the Constitution Center, 400 7th Street SW, Washington, DC 20001, Room 10102. We hold these meetings to discuss what is happening at the FTC that may be of interest to the legal services community. We also want to hear from you as well. If you have consumer protection concerns you would like to raise, new issues or trends you are seeing, any consumer outreach or education campaigns, or any other items you wish to share—please let us know.
On the agenda for this upcoming brownbag is the DeVry University case the agency filed on January 27, 2016, as well as recent cases we’ve brought to put a stop to fraudulent diploma mills. We will also talk about policy changes and upcoming events at the FTC.
Please send your RSVP to Tracey Thomas at tthomas@ftc.gov. We also hope you won’t hesitate to contact Tracey Thomas (tthomas@ftc.gov), Monica Vaca (mvaca@ftc.gov), or Patti Poss (pposs@ftc.gov), with any questions or input.
Note that the Constitution Center is conveniently located at the L’Enfant Plaza metro station, which services the yellow, green, blue, and orange metro lines. Leaving the metro via the “7th and D” exit will let you out right at the Constitution Center. Please give yourself time to get through the security line.
