It’s hard to believe we are in the 4th quarter of 2023. It seems like yesterday we held our first education committee meeting with over 60+ members volunteering their time to help guide AATC’s education curriculum. In addition to the education committee, we have a dedicated group of volunteers who have worked hard this year to create the GAME ON! Education and Leadership Conference on October 19th.
The education conference task force was charged with redesigning the conference and its entire platform. New this year is our venue – The Fort Worth Convention Center. Being able to utilize this facility has allowed our task force to create more education seminar offerings which exceed how our past conference lay out has been presented. We have over 16 incredible sessions covering leadership, operations, marketing/sales, and maintenance. Our instructors were hand chosen from local talent like:
- AATC President, Cayce Coon of Madera
- Rick Ellis, Ellis Consulting
- Kourtney Miller of CenturyHVAC
- Nicolle Block of Brookfield Properties
- Daisy McCarty of Ft Worth’s Marketing Blender
- Lissi Daniels of Lissi Daniels Company
- Sarah Turner of Olympus Property
- Shannon Hanrahan of Gracehill
- Ben Wientge or iRestify
- Jessica Brooks of Madera
- Victoria Coward of Pet Screening
- Attorney Jim Floyd of The Floyd Firm
- Perry Pillow of AATC
- Jamie Woody of Pegasus
- Cara Glover of Hillwood
- And more to come!
In addition to these incredible speakers, we’ve got 2 Keynote Speakers! Toni Blake, Multifamily Legend (some of you may have heard of her) who will be our opening keynote and our closing keynote, Former NFL Wide Receive Trent Shelton!
There are 3 options for registration: Single registration is $189 (includes lunch and parking), Group registration $170 for groups of 10 or more (includes lunch and parking), and a very special rate for our maintenance team members of $99 (includes lunch and parking).
We are offering additional programs at the association through the rest of the year:
- Certified Pool Operator, English Oct 11/12
- Spanish EPA 608 Review and Exam Oct 25/26
- CALP SLAM! Certified Apartment Leasing Professional starts on Oct 22 with Lissi Daniels.
