What’s the Conference Director Excited About?
Why attend?
Hi Everyone!

Imagine attending a conference where you will leave with a network of people that spreads across Canada, receive world class training and have a great time…That’s what you will receive at this conference.
Work Hard! Play Hard!
The conference is coming up fast. This “Cheat Sheet” has been created to give you the highlights of what to expect at the conference. Including important information, pricing and the schedule. What I’m excited about:
Erin Guillemette Conference Director
• Crowdfunding and Fundraising - As a nonprofit organization these are two topics that we always struggle with. Finding out how to preform each for optimal success is something I look forward to after attending these trainings.
Jay Johnson

• What video can do for your organization In the world we live in today the best way to get your audiences attention is through video, but how do you do it correctly? Learning the answer to that question makes me excited about this training.
Colmon Ellridge

He will be training on Interpersonal Communications and Effective Management of Teams. • Colmon Ellridge - Our Keynote on Thursday is going to be amazing!!
