What People Are Saying
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.
Julie O'Hara-Harvey
Senior EEO Program Manager
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.
