Spring meetings are coming to an end and students are deciding whether or not to attend National Leadership Conference in Nashville, TN. In looking at the schedule this year, you’ll notice a few changes.
First, we have responded to adviser concerns of high hotel bills and shortened the conference by one day. However, we have packed all the regular activities and plenty of learning opportunities into the week.
Advisers have multiple opportunities for professional development. On Monday Adviser-to-Adviser is being offered for teachers chosen to represent their states. Additionally those who have been enrolled in Adviser Academy have special sessions on Monday.
Tuesday adviser professional development sessions will take place and cover a range of topics including integrating core academics, using STAR Events in the classroom, teaching Generation Y and more! Each session will be offered three times for maximum opportunities for attendance.
Wednesday advisers will be recognized at the Adviser Recognition Session (formerly the Adult General Assembly). All advisers are encouraged to attend to support fellow teachers in their hard work. Additionally, advisers will elect a representative to the FCCLA Board of Directors. After the recognition Phil Lempert, Supermarket Guru, will address advisers as the session keynote speaker.
There are many opportunities for involvement and professional development at NLC. Don’t forget to contact the national office if you’d like to earn Continuing Education Units for your time. Please review the schedule carefully as you plan for your NLC experience.
We look forward to welcoming you to Nashville!
