Testimonials
Western's Conference Services provided highly professional technical and planning services for our virtual Annual Meeting. Thanks to their attention to detail, their warm, calm personalities, and their behind-the-scenes magic, our meeting of over 200 people ran far smoother than I could have imagined.

NAPAHE had an excellent experience working with Western's Conference Services team to present our 2021 national conference. The pre-planning and registration process were seamless, and the team was amazing with tech support leading up to and during the conference. NAPAHE is so appreciative for Conference Services playing such a major role in the success of our virtual conference.

NAPAHE partnered with Western Washington University for our 2021 virtual conference. Western utilized the Accelevents event platform and managed our registration process. Conference attendees reported high satisfaction with the registration process and commented that it was much smoother than in years’ past. With that, NAPAHE is considering using Western to help with the registration process for future conferences.
