National Dialog on Student Retention EducationDynamics launched the National Dialog on Student Retention, an initiative designed to foster discussion and information gathering about the latest practices in successful student retention, in 2007. Two ways that we further the project are through an annual conference and a distinguished speaker Webinar series.

<p>A number of participants asked thoughtful questions during the presentation, and we weren't able to answer them all. We will therefore be posting them here, and allowing the community to share their knowledge in attempting to provide insight. If you have a question of your own you would like to ask your colleagues, feel free to include it in the comments below and it will be added to this section.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, would anyone like to share the most helpful or interesting piece of information they took away from the Webinar?</p>
