My bbcon Experience

Published

This was my fourth bbcon and first bbu day. As we are beginning the process of transitioning to Raiser’s Edge NXT, my goal was to get a head start and learn as much as possible about NXT. Not only did I learn all about NXT, I am very excited about the possibilities and upcoming features.

I would say that bbu/bbcon is a wonderful combination of learning, networking, inspiration, motivation, and fun!

Learning –great variety of classes and sessions. I learned a great deal.
Networking – meeting many friendly, dedicated professionals who are willing to share their experiences.
Inspiration – Blair Underwood’s talk – “I see you.” “I am here”. What is your greater why?
Motivation – the Blackbaud team, conference speakers, and Jeremy Heiman helped to reignite that spark of enthusiasm about my work.
Fun – BBU reception, and the amazing reception at Citiwalk. A great time was had by all.

This year’s bbcon and bbu day exceeded my expectations. I am informed, inspired, and motivated for the upcoming year!
