AIEA Annual Conferences

"AIEA's Annual Conference is without a doubt the professional development and networking opportunity to which I most look forward each year. The level of sophistication represented in the dialogue is unparalleled. If I could only attend one conference per year, AIEA would be my choice."

Comments from participants at past AIEA conferences:

“When I started asking around, everyone told me that the AIEA conference was the one to go to if I wanted to learn (which I certainly did). I can honestly say that not a minute at the conference was wasted. I was able to get to every breakout session that I felt I needed, and from every one I walked away with a large amount of useful information that I will be able to put to good use starting today. I began to develop a network of experts in the fields, all of who offered their assistance in any way needed.”

"This is my favorite conference other than those that our organization hosts. The discourse is of high quality --- both visionary and strategic."

"The conference provided practical strategies and solutions to several issues on our campus. The conference also provided great networking opportunities to work with other institutions on concerns of similar interest. "

"Well-organized, good mix of plenary and sessions, small enough to talk with many people."

"It was packed with information, contacts and sessions. It's great to get the macro view...and the sharing of information is wonderful."

"An ideal forum to exchange ideas, experiences, wisdom."

"It was my first attendance and I am planning to attend next year too "

"My top conference choice "

"Absolutely superb!"
