What Attendees Have to Say
The IMA Student Leadership Conference 2023 in Detroit was a wonderful experience! I met some great employers who opened my eyes to different job opportunities that I wasn't aware of. I got to listen to some very knowledgeable guest speakers and learned a lot of information that I will bring back to my student chapter.
