Delegate Testimonials
I had the opportunity to learn from districts that are focused on innovative practices to move student learning forward and to collaborate with solution providers that offer tools that support this. A great 3 days!
This was my first RTM event and I found it to be incredibly valuable. It provides the opportunity to form genuine relationships with your peers and solution partners. As opposed to many large conference formats, the content is truly tailored to district leaders, making the learning meaningful and worth being away from your district for a few days.
One of the Best Conference I have attended in a long time, the keynote speakers were inspiring in a time where things have become harder and harder. Vendors addressed all the items I have been looking for in the coming year. Strategy session and Roundtable where spot on and meeting fellow school administrators and educators that have the same concerns and troubles. The accommodation where topnotch and the servers and staff were first-class. Thanks for motivating me for the rest of the school year.
