Hi all!
I have enrolled in the ENA Conference in Orlando for Sept./Oct. and was just wondering if anyone else is going? Also, if you have been to one before - what are your thoughts. Anything I need to take with me, be prepared for, etc? Still months away, but getting very excited to go. :)

Hmm didn't realize registration was open yet.
Like any conference, dress comfortably, comfortable shoes, pack snacks, leave extra space in your suitcase to bring swag home with you.
This year's conference is slightly different from privious conferences, ENA has merged it's two conferences into one. It's a good place to network, socialize and learn. And above all, start budgeting for next year now.
Unfortunately, I am not a fan of the ENA's website or organization. I had asked a friend of mine about going and she forwarded me an email she received about an early bird special where we put down a deposit in December and had to pay the balance by mid-January. But finding the registration stuff online is difficult, especially finding out any of the costs.

I wasn't even tracking that it's in Orlando! That is only about 4 hours from me. Hmmm. I'll be a civilian by then, maybe I'll go!
Craig, so it's leadership + the regular one? Interesting.
Yeah. Hopefully it will add to the number of CEUs and broden the interest some. I alternate conferences in what I try to be a 3 year cycle. If your close, at least check out the schedule when it's posted and catch a day or two.
IT's a good place to meet people and put faces to the social media presence.
