Conference

The GCC Conference Committee plans and executes the GCC Annual Conference, one of the primary ways that GCC members connect with and learn from one another each year. The Conference Committee works with a contract management company to manage logistics for the conference and develops a program that reflects and celebrates the organization‘s membership, innovation, research, and programmatic developments in the field of graduate-level career and professional development.
