- Look at the program schedule ahead of time and take note of sessions you want to attend.
- Bring a tablet or an alternative to take photos, videos, notes; and use the conference app!
- Be active in sessions and volunteer when opportunities are presented.
- Travel in small groups as larger ones tend to be more off task :)
