Region VI Knowledge Communities
Welcome to the Region VI Knowledge Communities (KCs), your Gateway to the Profession and Connection to the Association. As the slogan suggests, the KCs are the entry point to NASPA for graduate students or professionals wanting to get involve and take on a leadership role. KC Representatives are also included in the region's KC advisory board to give a collective voice of the association.
There are currently 26 KC's ranging in topics and specific issues currently facing our field. These active communities help to identify and share emerging knowledge and best practices. Each KC can have up to two regional representative and as many sub-committee representatives as necessary. Region VI consists of California, Arizona, Hawaii, Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Singapore.
Within the Region VI KCs there are a number of ways to get involved;
- You can be a Regional Representative for one of our many Knowledge Communities.
- You can serve on a committee or be an active member of a KC
- You can click one or more of the KCs on your NASPA profile page and receive emails about upcoming events or provide input into the programming or information provided by your KC representatives
- You can attend ancillary meetings, have a KC sponsor a presentation, or write an article to our many NASPA publications
This page is an informational page for those just getting started in Knowledge Communities as well as a resource page for those currently with the Region VI KC Leadership Team.
I hope to working with you,
Steven Lerer and Faith Kazmi
Region VI KC Co-Coordinators
