Delegate Testimonials
This was absolutely the best to start networking with fellow Higher Ed administration and learn about others challenges. This was also a good way to connect with vendors that could provide impactful solutions that didn't feel like a sales pitch.
RTM continues to elevate the quality of experience and conversation for senior leaders in higher education. I can’t thank them enough for providing an outstanding environment to discuss complex issues.
