"This is always a great experience -- a highlight of my year. Thank you!!"
"Every year I marvel at how the VEOC keeps the "menu" fresh and interesting with qualified and engaging speakers. Great job!"
"Excellent as always!"
These are just some of the quotes we received from those who attended the Eighth Annual Vermont Employee Ownership Conference held on June 9, 2010 at Champlain College in Burlington, VT.
This year's conference attracted more than 180 people from Vermont and neighboring states.
The full-day conference featured 19 workshops covering a range of topics from employee ownership basics to culture and management issues. Many of the presentations are available for download in PDF format below.
Thank you to all of the speakers and attendees for making the Eighth Annual conference our best yet. We look forward to seeing you next year.
