Conference Networking Events

The main focus of the Sixteenth Annual Conference is to provide quality fiduciary education to public retirement system trustees. However, our educational events also serve as a discussion forum. The GAPPT encourages all participants to attend the conference networking activities to meet and share ideas with fellow trustees and plan staff members.
