WHAT PAST PARTICIPANTS HAD TO SAY

“The keynote on ‘Please Understand Me’ was great. The speaker gave me keys to understanding my co-workers that will help me to deal with them in a whole different light.”

“It was great to be able to talk to others who are facing similar challenges in Facilities Management. So often we are isolated in our own little worlds, and end up reinventing the wheel.”

“Both the keynote and the energy conservation gave strategies for improving people management and cost/resource conservation.”

“The School Dude sessions were helpful because they can save my district the most money in the shortest period of time.”

“The whole conference was very organized and I appreciated the availability to choose what workshop you wanted to attend.”

“Mini-Roundtable shared very relevant info was shared at this session - wish it was longer!”

“The pre conference was valuable because it makes it easier to me to acquire my needed credits. The networking with other facilities people is also a great benefit.”
