Conference Preferences

It is one of MREA's stated goals to conduct the premier rural education conference. To achieve this, MREA needs to attract as many members as possible to the conference. Since you did not attend this year's conference, your feedback on how MREA can remove barriers to your attendance and motivate you to attend in 2012 is vital to holding the premier rural education conference.

I thank you in advance for your participation in this short survey.
