    This was a great event. Networking was great! Seeing people from ISCs, WSIPC, and OSPI made the learning opportunities vast.

    WASWUG 2023 attendee

    I learned tons of skills that will help me in my day-to-day tasks, and I had so much fun doing so! It was great to be around those in my field to learn, but also to relax and hang out together. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at WASWUG!

    WASWUG 2023 attendee

    This was the best conference yet! The training was relevant, tons of break out options, and the presenters were excellent and knowledgeable.
