CEEPS East 2006 Participant Comments

Feedback from our fourth year at Bark Lake...

“A relaxed yet innovative [forum] to connect with fellow practitioners in the field.  The flow of ideas is inspirational and I now have a renewed capacity to incorporate experience-based activities in my program.” - Andrea Onchulenko, Cadets Canada

“Huge benefit and great contacts - Always look forward to it.” – Joey Greene, SmartyPants Theater Co., Dayton, Ohio

What did you gain from your conference experience?

“An opportunity to spend a few days with my EE peers was great. It was a great opportunity to share thoughts, ideas and business challenges.  I appreciated the Thursday.  Having been in the industry for years it is harder to find sessions tailored for my needs - I found that extra day to be very valuable.  And of course spending 3 days with good people who have a passion for their work is always very motivating.” – Kate Cassidy, Community Adventure Training Initiatives

“New contacts.  New Ideas.  Resources.  Personal development.  I feel refreshed and more confident!!” – Shannon Butters, Carleton University

“A chance to breathe and reflect - Re-charge.  Some great networking.” – Tim Arnold, The Frontier Group

“1. Validation of our approach to infuse EE concepts into our cadet training program.
2. Ideas for further enhancements.
3. MET A LOT OF GREAT PEOPLE!!!” – Donnie Oulton, Cadets Canada

What did you think of the Enhanced Virtual Space Concept?

“Great idea - saw people come with needs that won't be met through scheduled workshops.” - Andrew Hiebert, Camp Crossroads

“Really liked it - more concrete & value articulated.” - Belinda Clemmensen, Clemmensen Consulting

“Worked great.” - Mike Caldwell, Corporate Synergy

“Can't wait to use it myself!  This will certainly be useful during staff orientation.  LOVED IT!!!” – Donnie Oulton, Cadets Canada

What would you tell your peers and colleagues?

“Please go to CEEPS.  It is a perfect tool for understanding more about why you do what you do” – Kevin Parker, Delta Synergy Group
