About Our Senior Living and Academic Symposium
Forging solutions through a clear, committed vision.
Vision Centre: Leadership Development for Aging Services sets forth a gutsy set of goals. We achieve those objectives with courage, commitment and follow-through. Thus, we began our endeavor by laying out a well-constructed framework for the future we want to see.
Beginning with our initial 2019 senior living symposium, we hit the ground running. It was there the work began. Vital conversations were sparked and valuable perspectives collected directly from those at the forefront of the senior living education and senior care administration fields.
