Overview of Presentation Formats
Career Readiness – Workshops allow presenters to share insights that provide skills concerning undergraduate/graduate career readiness. This session should blend presented information and active participation and reflect ideas presented within the NACA® Employability Skills Assessment.
Panel – a diverse exploration of a particular topic, with insight given from professionals from different member institutions/organizations. Submissions should describe the proposed topic and panel members should represent different institutions and viewpoints and challenge the audience to think broadly about issues and ideas in campus activities. If selected, the coordinating presenter is responsible for arranging the panelists.
Scholar’s Corner - an opportunity to share and highlight the scholarly pursuits of campus activities professionals, either through the sharing of findings of published work via The Journal of Campus Activities Practice & Scholarship (JCAPS), research and scholarship grant recipients or through successfully defended dissertations. Selected presentations should align with the NACA Research Agenda.
