What People Are Saying

Brandy Luna

Brandy Luna

Director, Human Resources

DEAMcon is one of my favorite conferences that I attend every year. I make it a point. The first year we came there were two of us. Now there's four of us from Nelnet that attend. So I would say the quality is very high. We definitely get our value out of the conference.

The networking at DEAMcon is priceless. The people that you meet, the partnerships that you build. I can't say enough about it. The event brings a wealth of educational opportunities, knowledge, and timely information that's needed, especially in the space of compliance because there are so many moving targets. DirectEmployers does a great job at sorting that out for you.
