This Conference was enjoyable. All presentations were of value to all facets of LE. A different investigative perspective was given during this conference. I look forward to applying my educational experience with real world investigations. Great job to all and thanks to MGIA for the opportunity in career growth.

This was my first conference that I have attended (since I was hired during COVID). I thoroughly enjoyed it and learned a lot. My only critique would be that I would have liked for some of the presentations to be more of a "how to apply this to you or a how this could help you in your field" instead of just "this is what I do" and an information overload without instruction on how to use it/apply it.
