The Graduate Training Track is funded by a grant to the AFA Foundation from Rho Lambda National Honorary.
This year's Graduate Training Track (GTT) will incorporate the Annual Meeting theme: Educate, Impact, and Involve. GTT will open up with words of welcome from the members of the leadership within the Association and lead into an opening session focusing on the concept: Educate.
EDUCATE
How is our work impacted by the idea of Caring for Our Community? This statement will be one of the main focuses of the opening session of the program. Participants will have the opportunity to identify strategies for building community within AFA and beyond as a new professional.
IMPACT
The GTT will host a informative panel of experts who will focus on educating participants on the national umbrella organizations and other constituency groups with whom fraternity/sorority life professionals work. Participants will be introduced to basic guidelines, resources and trainings offered by national umbrella organizations or constituency groups.
INVOLVE
GTT will close by looking at ways to be involved within the Association and taking advantage of all the opportunities that the Annual Meeting has to offer. This year, the Graduate Training Track will feature a new Capstone experience for attendees on the last day of the Annual Meeting during regularly scheduled educational programming to help members synthesize their experience at the Annual Meeting and in the GTT.
With the theme Educate, Impact, Involve we are sure to have an experience for graduate students that is not only informative, but also engaging.
