This is our ARES® training plan for 2023. It is not all inclusive of KCHEART, JARA, PKARC, and LvCo OEM events and training opportunities. There may need to be some flexibility in dates, but the order is important. The training builds on itself as we prepare for SET 2023. There may be PKARC build sessions that contribute to our ability to meet our challenges.
