The Opening Session will give us a chance to celebrate the successes of our institutions, get our creativity flowing, and connect across all the ways we help champion our institutions. In this interactive session, CASE President and CEO Sue Cunningham will offer her view of advancement and the state of the profession and offer insights and inspiration on why advancement is even more important than ever. Conference attendees will also be joined by members of CASE’s US-Canada Council for this session, enabling the Council to hear about the successes and opportunities community colleges are experiencing.
