FIVE SEATS LEFT

The February 21-23, 2014, Deans and Directors Retreat has five seats left!   Perhaps you thought it was too late?

This event starts on Friday evening with a media reception.  You will be wined and dined and have a chance to mingle with the great commodity boards and agriculture giants of Idaho as well as with your fellow Retreat attendees and representatives of the media.

Saturday we begin with a keynote by Dr. Fred Mayo on our conference theme of "Managing Change."  We will also have presentations that day on putting a monetary value on our training and on how to determine trends from fads when updating curriculum.

We will also have an industry panel talking about what they see for the future of our business, building on our theme last year:  20/20 Vision.

Sunday's keynote is Dr. Robert Roehrich, a higher education specialist who will discuss change from within and without on admissions, retention, and graduation success.  He will lead an interactive discussion on these challenges.

The close of our conference will be led by Chef Randall Sansom who will give us the update on social media and its current rapid integration in our programs.

This is an issue-driven conference and one that is designed with postsecondary Deans and Directors in mind.
