Based upon your application and then a selection process that you drive, we develop a custom agenda that introduces you to the peers and solution providers you are interested in meeting, and who are interested in meeting with you. This personalized schedule is two days of interactive and topical meetings, meals, and social functions. As a result, you will learn more in 48 hours than you ever thought was possible!

What Attendees Say

"If your looking to really get something from a conference, the the school bus summit venue is your answer. People from across the United States with the same challenges as you come together to problem solve and share Ideas . And to be able to have one on one discussions with vendors to offer solutions for your transportation needs was awesome. The networking and meeting with other Directors and Supervisors was great. I will be returning to this venue. Thanks again for putting it on." -  Erin Hill Farmington Public School Farmington Mi.
