Invitation
NEOA invites session proposals for its annual conference. The mission of NEOA is to advocate for access to and success in postsecondary education for low income individuals, first generation college students, and college students with disabilities and to develop the skills and knowledge of educational opportunity professionals working with this population. We are composed of several programs including Student Support Services, Talent Search, Upward Bound, Upward Bound Math/Science, Veterans Upward Bound, Educational Opportunity Centers, McNair Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program, and Gear UP. Please consider sharing your ideas and expertise with educational opportunity professionals by submitting a proposal that closely aligns with this year’s theme.
Theme
The annual New England Educational Opportunity Programs is excited to have its annual conference on April 10-12 at the Double Tree Hotel in Burlington, VT. This conference will focus on Empowering Learners. The conference will focus on providing opportunities for our professionals to fill their toolboxes with tools to empower students of all ages to be the best they can be. This would encompass tools to support students being ready to learn, self-advocacy, and using their resources to support learning and mental well-being.
Submitting a Proposal
1. Consider your topic, its significance, and what you want your audience to take away from your session.
2. Consider your session format, target audience, and technology needs.
3. Complete the Workshop Proposal Form by Friday, February 2, 2024.
If you would like to run an idea by me before writing the proposal, I can let you know if we already have something similar planned for the conference. I'm here to answer any questions you have.
Warm regards,
