The Call for Proposals for the 2025 SEM Conference is open.
Session proposals with a presenter or co-presenter representing a corporate entity can contact corporates@aacrao.org to learn more about opportunities to present at the Conference.
Some of the themes we are interested in pursuing at this year's conference include:
- Partnerships with local employers to develop enrollment strategies
- Programs focusing on Micro-credentials and up-skilling
- Shifting your aid strategy from merit-based to need-based aid
- Leveraging financial aid to increase retention and student success
- Micro-scholarships and opportunities to influence student behavior
- Building a strategic enrollment plan jointly for two-year and four-year school partnerships
- Community college-focused strategic enrollment management strategies
- Staying true to your DEI values while staying compliant with state laws that restrict DEI efforts
All accepted session presenters must register for the SEM Conference and present in person at the Conference venue.
In the 34-year history of the meeting, our role in higher education has never been more critical; from navigating the enrollment
cliff to the worldwide calls for justice and equality, the SEM Conference is the premier gathering for leaders in higher education.
NOTE: Presenters receive a 25% discount on the registration fee for the entire SEM Conference.
