Investing in our Future Webinar Series:
"Basic Level" Professional Competencies for Students interested in Student Affairs

Investing in our Future is a free webinar series for the more than 500 undergraduate and 3,500 graduate student members of NASPA. Based on the Professional Competency Areas for Student Affairs Practitioners, these complimentary for NASPA member webinars address the broad professional knowledge, skills, and, in some cases, attitudes expected of student affairs professionals regardless of their area of specialization or positional role within the field. We are continuing this series for the 2012-2013 academic year, and we need your submissions! 

Each webinar will address the "basic level" of one of the professional competency areas for student affairs practitioners. All webinars will occur from 4-5pm (eastern time zone). It is expected that all individuals viewing the webinar are NASPA members, and thus, we are requiring each individual viewing the webinar register through our membership database. Please continue reading for more information on each webinar.
