2021 MAC Conference Attendee Comments
"It was great! A lot of good education, focus on self-awareness, and importance of ongoing development."
"I want to say how much I truly enjoyed this conference which felt so much more like a conversation than a lecture. I enjoyed the interaction of presenters with each other. Can't wait for the conference next year." "I appreciated this conference immensely! Thank you for fostering a safe and empowering space for learning and sharing perspectives with encouragement for vulnerability and growth. I look forward to connecting with you all again in the future!" "I loved the first MAC conference-definitely the most well-thought-out virtual conference I've been to!" |
"The information is presented in a comprehensive manner, and well explained. Excellent time management."
"Such a varied wealth of information. I loved the diversity of topics, presenters, and backgrounds. Presenters were passionate about their topics, which really helped to facilitate the learning." "I like how the conference provided real information and not regurgitation of things that I know and/or are already 'out' in the field by the time you get to a conference. At least half, if not more, was fresh and new information or it provided a new perspective on things. It also affirmed that some practices I am engaging in are correct." |
