I attended the Experience Industry Management Conference for the Recreation Management program on March 26 and 27. This is a conference where professionals from all over the recreation industry come together and discuss new topics, network with each other, and get to know students preparing to enter the industry.
The different professionals there ranged from hotel management to city parks and rec. This event was a great way to get a little inside on every different aspect in the recreation experience industry.
I thought this conference was one of the most useful events because of its wide range of professions. There is never a bad networking opportunity. Event just talking to someone for a small amount of time can open doors to your future. Because of this event, I was able to apply for a job and have connections to the general manager of the resort. I am still waiting to hear about the job, but I know that I have that much more advantage because of my interactions with other people.
