SUMMARY:NCAN Conference: Submitting A Successful Proposal
DESCRIPTION:Thinking about presenting an effective practices workshop or a roundtable discussion at NCAN National Conference in Anaheim\, CA? \nOur conference attracts a wide range of postsecondary attainment professionals\, from direct student service leaders in community based organizations and K-12 school districts to policy gurus and state agency representatives from around the country. As always\, we are looking to fill our conference session slate with timely\, practical yet innovative content for all participants. If last year’s 1\,300 attendees is any indication of how many people will attend this year\, we will need more of everything! \nPreparing a proposal for a national conference may sound daunting at first\, but we want to give you all the tools you need to craft that roundtable discussion or effective practices workshop. Join the NCAN’s Member Services Team for a webinar full of tips and tricks that you can use to make your proposal an easy selection. \nThe webinar is open to the public\, so feel free to share with your colleagues and across your networks who are working diligently to make a difference in their students’ lives.
