Attendee Testimonials

Hear what our conference attendees have to say about the valuable resources and guidance they receive as ACET members.

The ACET Conference has been a wonderful experience for me. From my first year serving as Federal and State Programs Director to now, it has never failed to provide the latest information about all areas through informative and engaging sessions. Plus,  the opportunity to meet with others and share ideas is invaluable. Of course, always hearing from Cory Green on the last day…Priceless!

Paul Covey

Ysleta ISD

“Attending, volunteering, and participating in ACET has allowed me to grow professionally by understanding various compliance components necessary to ensure programming and funding are used to benefit students and families. It has also provided opportunities to network and build a support system of professionals to share best practices and ideas.”

Nicole Davis

Harlandale ISD

“Attending at least one ACET pre-conference and conference ever year is the best way for Federal Programs staff to learn the intricacies of their job and find ways to work smarter, not harder! Even after 6+ years, the ACET conference is the best and most timely professional development I receive every single year.”
