Join us for a collaborative conversation on the evolution of the student affairs professional, and the need for an innovative, strategic and inclusive approach to recruiting, retaining, and advancing a diverse and robust workforce in student affairs. While we have made progress in our practices, we understand that marginal improvement is not enough to keep us competitive and propel us forward. That's why we must reimagine our approach to cultivating and sustaining our pipeline of talented practitioners. Our panel will engage in discussion on attracting diverse talent to sustain enrollment in our graduate programs, upskilling current practitioners, drawing talent from other disciplines, and establishing clear pathways to advancement within the field. We will also examine the skills, resources, and practices needed to foster a culture of inclusion and innovation that empowers our professionals to aspire, achieve, and thrive within the profession. Register today for this dynamic conversation and help us co-create a path forward for a more robust future for all Student Affairs professionals.
