We would love to have a variety of presentations from a diverse group of presenters! Please consider submitting a proposal. This year's conference theme is Cultivating a Sense of Belonging: Going Beyond Inclusion on Campus. In the spirit of this year's theme, we welcome proposals from our colleagues at all stages of their careers. Training directors, we understand that the timing of our conference doesn't allow for incoming interns to submit a proposal. If you would like your 2023-2024 cohort to have the experience of leading a roundtable discussion, please provide us with some general information now, and then once interns start, we'll reach out for specific details for the program.
Proposals could focus on recognizing and addressing microaggressions, examining power and privilege, offering resources, and developing multiculturally-competent outreach and interventions. Program proposals that address this year’s conference theme will be given priority consideration. Please submit an electronic copy of your proposed program via this form.
When submitting a proposal, please note that we are looking for a brief content overview of the area you’ll be exploring followed by action-oriented steps to promote change. If your proposal is accepted, the presentation title, presenter information, and abstract you provide will be included in the conference program—please be sure the information you submit is accurate. More than one proposal may be submitted; however, multiple acceptances will be reviewed with consideration for conference schedule limitations. Proposals are due by midnight central time on June 30, 2023. You will have 60 minutes total to hold your discussion. Notification of selection will take place no later than July 14, 2023. To allow as many to participate as possible, we may ask you to consider collaborating with others if similar proposals are submitted.
Please be advised:
Should your proposal be admitted and you plan to attend the conference, you will be required to pay the registration fee for the conference.
