Benefits of Attending

Take it from Jeffrey Simpson of Oklahoma State University (testimonial on the right) - Don't miss the opportunity to build a network and enhance your skills of Terra Dotta software. The Terra Dotta software user community comes together each year to gain knowledge and ensure their organization or institution is using the software to its fullest potential. How can you show the value of attending the conference to others at your institution?

Communicate the value to your employer

Develop a proposal that demonstrates how your institution will benefit from attendance at the conference and share your experience upon your return. The time-saving features you learn to implement will be valuable enough to justify the cost.

Determine goals for your office processes and use of the software
Review the workshop and session schedule to pinpoint those that address your goals
Make a list of questions to ask a mentor at the conference to enhance your learning
Create a report to share with your supervisor depicting the benefits of conference attendance and include a schedule of the sessions you plan to attend with explanations for how the knowledge gained will advance your office's goals
Share your experience, the information, and the contacts you brought back with your supervisor and colleagues

You must attend if you are...

Currently implementing the software on your campus
New to the office and in need of an overview on the basic processing features

"As a new user of Terra Dotta, attending the conference was immensely helpful! It was valuable to learn not only the basic functionality, but to learn how advanced users utilize the software in their own unique ways and where my office can eventually go with the software."

-- Eric Phamdo, University of Rochester

A long-time user looking for new strategies to enhance your institution's utilization of the software
Discovering best practices and ways you can enhance the platform for your process

"Even if you've been using Terra Dotta software for a number of years, attending the user conference is extremely helpful for learning about new features in the upcoming version upgrade, hearing ways that other campuses are using the software, and gathering ideas about how your office or institution can expand use of the software."

-- Raissa Schnitzius, University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire

Reasons TDU is a must

Networking: Connect with peer institutions and engage with those who have implemented unique uses of the software to visualize future possibilities for your office.
