[column 6]"The value of the collaboration, networking and hands-on learning that goes on during NCCO can't be overstated. By the end of this conference, you'll have formed your own mini national network of fellow electric co-op communicators, learned how to best leverage NRECA communication resources and gained a better overall understanding of the cooperative difference. Whether you are new to being a communication professional or just new to being one at an electric cooperative, NCCO has something for you."
