"My ISA XDP experience was very valuable in the sense that I got to see new products,fabricators, and possibilities. I met other designers in my field that have the same experiencesand struggles, that have different perspectives and knowledge, that I could network with andconnect with. I had a great time learning and exploring the city and the show floor."

I really enjoyed getting to know other design professionalsfrom around the country, especially with them being so diverse and at all different stages intheir careers. The venue, accommodations, entertainment and the food & drink were excellent.I would recommend this program to any designer in the sign industry."
