ACA International’s popular Guide to State Collection Laws and Practices has evolved. Once a stand-alone print product, today’s State Guide has evolved to become a subscribers-only community through which ACA staff, industry attorneys and agency compliance experts can share information about state statutes, regulations and state-specific judicial decisions.
With this change, State Guide subscribers get access to a whole host of additional benefits, on top of the monthly state law updates that they’ve always received. This includes new monthly webinars, open only to State Guide Cohort subscribers.
“The State Guide Cohort webinars are a very valuable resource for keeping up with the ever-changing state requirements,” said Coral Winter, compliance coordinator for Hauge Associates Inc. “The webinars provide what I need to know in addressing state changes to collections communications and practices, as well as what I need to pass on to our clients. As there is only one of me, and 50 states to watch, I find the ACA State Guide and the cohort webinars to be a real help.”
The next webinar will be held on Tuesday, Dec. 13, 1-1:30 pm CT.
“As state legislatures get back to work in January, the monthly cohort meetings may become an even more valuable resource—particularly for folks who do not have huge internal legal or compliance teams,” said Leslie Bender, senior attorney at Eversheds Sutherland.
