Looking for an online presentation for your workplace, school or community organization on greener living solutions? We have both the expertise and the variety of presentations to meet that need.
Whether it’s a staff meeting, health and wellness fair, classroom, summer camp, or church group, think of Green Action Centre. Presentations are generally 45-60 minutes in length, including time for questions. We can also modify presentations to suit your time requirements. We recommend booking your presentation at least a few weeks in advance. For the more popular presentation times of year (April, May, June, September, October), it’s best to book further in advance to avoid disappointment.
