We are excited to announce that the College Counseling Web-shop: Getting Hands-On with Coalition, Common App, CSS Profile, and FAFSA has been awarded a NACAC Imagine Fund Grant. Counselors are able to apply for a scholarship to attend this pre-conference workshop online here and funds will be granted on a rolling basis. Applicants may also request funding to cover on campus Tuesday night housing.
Middle Management Workshop: NEACAC’s Professional Development Committee will host a workshop for middle managers working at colleges and universities. This program will provide an opportunity for individuals to acquire techniques, strategies, and advice that will assist them as they continue to progress in their careers. Attendees will likely be at the assistant, senior assistant, or associate director level and will have some leadership and supervisory responsibilities within their office. During the workshop, attendees will hear from individuals in senior management positions at a variety of institutions and will have the opportunity to engage in discussion with colleagues. Topics to be covered include team-building, reporting, communication techniques, and career advancement. This year’s presenters will be Grant Gosselin from Wheaton College, Jim Fowler from Salve Regina University, and Amy Tiberio from Roger Williams University. Questions? Contact co-chairs Katherine Miele, [email protected], or Tim Kelly, [email protected]
