This was one of the most influential and educational conferences I’ve ever attended. It was great meeting people to network and focusing on health science for 3 days!
It was THE BEST HEALTHCARE conference I have ever attended. It was refreshing to go to all the sessions and come out with useful information for my classroom. THANK YOU!
I can’t even describe what this conference meant to me. I learned so much and added to my repertoire of teaching tools/ideas.
