As we move forward in our ever-evolving world, it's crucial to pause and look back at the milestones we've achieved. One such significant milestone was attending the NCCCSPA Annual Conference, November 1-3, 2023. Today, let's take a journey down memory lane and revisit the insights, experiences, and connections that made this conference a memorable event.

Each session was a goldmine of wisdom and inspiration.

Conferences are not just about absorbing information but also about forging new connections. The NCCCSPA Annual Conference provided numerous opportunities for attendees to network and exchange ideas. From the Welcome Reception to the Tricks of the Trade, it was easy to strike up conversations and learn from professionals in different areas of the state.

The conference featured both old favorite and new interactive sessions, allowing attendees to explore their chosen areas of interest. These sessions included roundtable discussions and sharing successful tools, and offered a dynamic and practical approach to learning, allowing participants to engage actively.
