Delegate Testimonials
RTM continues to be a special conference that connects me with peers throughout the country, challenges me to think in new ways, and connects me with potential partners that often meet my needs really well. The RTM team is responsive and supportive, and the partnerships with vendors are invaluable - whether we leverage them or not. As long as the invite keeps coming, I will continue to attend
RTM delivers an inspiring, impeccably run, thought-provoking event through a variety of learning formats that inspires leaders to collaborate and innovate to promote student success. The CIO conference was unlike any technology learning experience I have attended.
