Networking & Community

First Timers Program

A voluntary program specifically to enhance a first conference experience. When registering, let us know if this is your first time. You’ll be connected with a seasoned leader before the event, who will be guided by a seasoned Qual Crew Leader before and during the conference. Plus, we have two events during the conference specifically designed to jumpstart your networking.
