The smaller group allows for better networking
Enjoyed the balance between technical issues & overall MLS issues
The opportunity to hear what other MLSs are doing around the country
Varied topics. No "fluff"
I love that the topics are extremely current. We didn’t discuss yesterday’s news.
Consistent greatness in presenters & ideas
All topics were presented well, gave me real information to take back
Will be back next year! Very valuable networking & industry updates.
