Feedback from 2017 Symposium Attendees

It was the best symposium by far. Being a specialist in both DUI and THI fields it was very beneficial to have the option to attend either type of session. Definitely continue combining symposiums.
I think it is very cost effective for our agency. Instead of paying to send deputies to two separate conferences, we are able to just pay for one conference.
I thought it was very beneficial considering many of our THI investigations involve DUI drivers.
It was a great idea! Gave me a ton of new training in traffic reconstruction topics that will be helpful for court.
It was good to have the two different tracks and you didn't have to stay with one track. It was also good to have both DUI/DRE and THI officers attend one conference as they do work as a team on investigations where impaired driving is involved.
Awesome!!!!!!!
