IMC, 2019 conference

November 13, 2019 by Rachel Kincaid

Early in November, the CGMS Leadership team gathered before the IMC conference in Sarasota for strategic planning, team building and support.  Many CGMS faculty, adult learners and graduates from across the US and from several countries attended the annual conference.  The conference provided a wonderful opportunity for professional development, renewal and connections!
