Proposal Details & Instructions
New topics and presenters are encouraged for submission!
New in 2025! We are seeking proposals for facilitated roundtable discussions. These sessions are designed to be interactive, allowing participants to discuss common advising challenges, share ideas, and explore innovative practices together. Potential ideas include: how advisors could use artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline processes, strategies for supporting diverse student populations, best practices for virtual advising, and methods for enhancing student engagement. Expertise not necessary here – this format is great if you simply have an interest in the topic and a desire to facilitate the discussion. Please note that rooms hosting the facilitated roundtables will have limited technology (microphone only) to support these more conversational sessions.
For all proposals, be prepared to submit:
