2024 NASPA Institute for Aspiring Vice Presidents for Student Affairs

In-Person Faculty-led Institutes Supporting the Profession AVP or "Number Two" Mid-Level Senior Level

The NASPA Institute for Aspiring Vice Presidents for Student Affairs is an intensive four-day program designed for professionals considering a move to the vice president for student affairs position or for those simply seeking to learn more about the role. It is an application-based program; individuals in mid-level managerial positions or higher are encouraged to apply.

About the Institute Model

This exclusive professional development program is an institute. Unlike conferences where participants choose to participate (or not) in concurrent sessions, during this institute, all attendees will participate in the same cohort experience and are expected to engage fully in all aspects of the program including meals. It is a very intensive experience, and the program will run into the evening each day.

A Note for AVPs/"Number Twos" Considering Applying for This Institute

If you are an AVP (or the equivalent) who is in the first two years of your first AVP (or equivalent) role, NASPA recommends you to attend the 2024 NASPA Institute for New AVPs instead of this institute. This program is offered every other year, and your application for the 2024 institute will be encouraged.
