The Best Place to Gather New Ideas
Here's what 2021 attendees have to say about Connect:
"The Connect Conference is the place to be if you are looking for solutions and suggestions that are relatable and actionable with tangible results. If what you are looking for, surprisingly, isn't found in a session, it can undoubtedly be found in connecting with the vast number of other diverse, skilled and experienced attendees."
Jonathan Farmer, Director of Member Solutions, Pioneer Utility Resources
"Connect Conference is always on point! You have to experience it for yourself. Great information to help enhance in your job position and ideas to help you grow into a leader to help others. The morale is Awesome!"
Patrice Jordan, Coordinator, Community Relations & Engagement, Roanoke Electric Cooperative
"The Connect Conference is the best way to equip yourself and your cooperative for the challenges on the horizon for our industry. It also allows you to build your support system of fellow communicators and be a strong contributor to the success of your cooperative."
Rachel Frey, Manager of Communication, Sam Houston EC
"Great investment of time and money to make you the most effective co-op communicator you can be... for yourself, your coworkers, your members and community. Find resources, best practices, friends and fun!"
