The theme of the conference was "Lifelong Learning- The Gig Economy and The Changing Face of the Non-Traditional Learner." Keynote speaker Ms. Melinda Mack, Executive Director of the New York Association of Training and Employment Professionals, presented on this topic, highlighting the three areas in which we as Continuing Education and Workforce professionals need to focus- Millennials, Technology and the Gig Economy.

After Melinda's presentation, a delicious hot lunch was served and attendees took some time to network and chat on the ocean front patio!

Next up was Dr. Lucia Alcantara, President and Founder of Futures Tomorrow Consulting.

Dr. Alcantara started the session with a critical conversation about the changing face of adult learners. She then provided a highly interactive session were attendees engaged with provoking reflections and critical thought that motivated them to think differently about how they work with adult learners; all while partaking in various forms of professional development activities.

After dessert, attendees had the chance to attend a Urban Farm Tour, which is the campuses 1/4 acre organic farm that provides vegetables, herbs and plants to the Culinary Arts program, the KCC students, staff and faculty.

Overall, the Region South Conference was a huge success and we hope that all of the attendees found value in attending and we look forward to seeing everyone at the Annual Conference!
