I was beginning to think that live conferences were in my rear view mirror...until I attended the Annual Education Conference of the National Association for Law Placement. It was my first live conference in over four years. And I was like a kid in a candy shop.

While I've made a point of going to an occasional live event, especially in the last two years (including speaking at live events), I had pretty much give up on conferences.

Attending the NALP conference changed that for me. The quality of the networking and the quality of the workshops convinced me that going to live conferences is still an important part of marketing and professional development. Listen in to hear my story.
