What Do You Like Best About Continuing Education Conferences?

Tim and I just returned from New Orleans, where he attended continuing education seminars to keep his veterinarian certificate current, and I nosed around checking things out. There were people of all kinds, those who were clearly gung ho about the event, those who looked a bit lost, and others who seemed merely obligated to attend.

I'll write about my observations over the next few weeks, but first I'd like to know what you like best about conferences. Take the poll in the forum, and leave a comment about how you voted.

I loved New Orleans, by the way. It was my first trip to the city, and what a wonderfully different place it is.
