"As a new First Year Experience director, this conference provided me with a wonderful crash course in student success – a means to totally immerse myself in a broad variety of meaningful practical topics."
University of Alabama, Huntsville, AL

"The TeamUP College Survival Conferences always energize me. I get to share ideas with people from around the country who share my same passion(s). The Cengage staff and the conference attendees are so open and welcoming. I always make good connections with awesome people from other institutions. The TeamUP conferences give me so much more useful info and networking opportunities than the conferences I attend that are sponsored by professional organizations."
