Indigenous Engagement at the NASPA Annual Conference
The 2024 NA Annual Conference in Seattle integrates Indigenous content, worldviews, and wisdom in multiple ways.
Attendee Engagement
Engagement with #NASPA25 begins Today!
Professional development is the core of the NASPA Annual Conference, but the full conference experience includes engagement with the NASPA community beyond attending educational sessions. The Conference Leadership Committee starts working on the conference nearly 18 months ahead of the event. This is created by student affairs educators, for student affairs educators!
The 2025 Conference Leadership Committee is planning engagement opportunities that will build on the learning that will take place in sessions, creating spaces for networking, community building, and fun! But, we can't do any of that without YOU.
Become a Reviewer for the 2025 NASPA Annual Conference
We receive over 1,000 program submissions for the 600 - 700 programs that are selected for the conference. And we need as many reviewers as we can to ensure that every program is reviewed by a panel of your peers.
Pre-Conference Workshop Reviewers
Pre-conference Workshops are the first group of program submissions that are reviewed and selected. Pre-conference Workshops proposals are due July 10, we will need reviewers who will review these extended sessions between July 11 - 24, 2024.
Sign up to be a Pre-Conference Workshop Reviewer today! Spend a little time this summer reviewing programs that will launch on October 1 for registration.
Conference Session Reviewers
We will need hundreds of student affairs educators to assist in reviewing their colleagues' proposals for #NASPA25. Please consider spending some of your September reviewing programs that are submitted for the NASPA Annual Conference. We require that a panel of at least three program reviewers review each program, prior to the Conference Leadership Committee's final review.
Reviewers will have from September 10-25 to complete the program reviews before we pass the programs to the CLC to review and select your conference sessions!
