Testimonials

I had so many take aways and action items that I expect to discuss for implementation with our college leaders.

The conference touched on relevant and timely topics helpful in my school’s development of the doctoral program.

"The variety of podium abstracts was fantastic and a great opportunity to learn directly from peers. I discovered innovative visual thinking and loved how it opened my mind to creative solutions."
