ERN USA National Peer Learning Conference Success

In October 2018, over 65 administrators, success coaches and employers met for the annual USA ERN Peer Learning Conference, hosted by New York ERN. Seven states were represented including New York, Kentucky, Indiana, Texas, and Tennessee. “The ERN conference is valuable to all attendees and their respective employees. It stimulates conversations of best practices. People are people regardless of where they live and work with similar issues. We can share, brainstorm and generate a starting point for solutions." Gwen Pulvirent, employer, New York ERN.
