Testimonials

“I loved hearing what other schools are doing and how they are managing issues. My favorite session is getting together with other Associate Deans and Deans from other public colleges. It gives me ideas of what I can do at my school.”

“I loved the diverse topics and that we could choose which ones best fit our needs.”

“The pre-conference, meeting with colleagues, several of the sessions were excellent! Exhibitor conversations were helpful in addressing issues with the products we use and identifying additional uses for some of them.”

“The networking opportunities are invaluable. The small group discussions are always my favorite parts as this is where I generate ideas to take back to my own program.”

“I appreciate how 黑料吃瓜王 supports academic nursing leaders to collaborate to improve education for all students. Identifying challenges and solutions is invaluable. This is my do-not-miss conference annually along with the spring dean's meeting.”
