Hi, I'm Celina Shands, CEO and Founder of Full Capacity Marketing.

00:00:04.900 --> 00:00:10.200
Welcome to the 2026 COABE Conference in Indianapolis.

00:00:10.200 --> 00:00:11.700
You know this year is so

00:00:11.700 --> 00:00:15.900
special for us as we're celebrating 25 years in business helping

00:00:15.900 --> 00:00:18.900
more than 750 workforce and

00:00:18.900 --> 00:00:24.300
education organizations nationwide build exceptional brands.

00:00:24.300 --> 00:00:28.400
As COABE's 2025 Partner of the Year, we're so

00:00:28.400 --> 00:00:33.100
proud to support their global award winning including

00:00:33.100 --> 00:00:39.300
#MoveAheadWithAdultEd behind every employer and educate and Elevate.

00:00:39.300 --> 00:00:40.200
There are so

00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:45.500
many opportunities to engage with us both on site at the COABE Conference and

00:00:45.500 --> 00:00:47.300
online through the Whova app,

00:00:47.300 --> 00:00:52.000
where you can download resources and join our discussion threads or

00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:56.100
schedule a consult to help you align with the best marketing strategies.

00:00:56.100 --> 00:01:01.200
In 2026 to increase enrollment in adult education,

00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.900
we'll be teaching on site two hybrid classes,

00:01:04.900 --> 00:01:10.600
including one called the Strategic Marketing Funnel for Adult Education.

00:01:10.600 --> 00:01:14.400
This one is a total game changer for enrollment strategies,

00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:16.900
so we hope you enjoy that one.

00:01:16.900 --> 00:01:20.800
Our second session tackles a new angle on social media and

00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:23.200
strategies to help you build trust,

00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:27.100
support and connection within your community.

00:01:27.100 --> 00:01:31.400
Both of our sessions are on Monday morning and include handouts and

00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:34.400
