2008 NAAHP National Meeting

 
The 18th  NAAHP National Meeting, scheduled for June 25-29, 2008 at the Chicago Marriott Downtown on North Michigan Avenue, promises to the the biggest and best professional development experience in our history.  The conference theme is, Strengthening Our Connections: Partnerships in the 21st Century.  A few of the program highlights include pre-conference workshops for new and experienced advisors,  regional business meetings and programming, keynote speakers, a tentative wine/dessert reception at the world-famous Field Museum of Natural History, over 125 participating admissions deans and directors at our traditional Meet the Deans event, close to ten opportunities to visit Chicago based professional schools, sessions on career trends, admissions workshops and diversity.  A full agenda will still allow time to explore the wonderful city of Chicago, including A Taste of Chicago, just minutes away.  Don't miss this opportunity to strengthen your connections with nearly 900 advisors, professional schools, admissions staff and national health associations.  Many of the food and beverage events during our 5 days together will be generously provided by our association and school partners.

For exhibitor and sponsor opportunities, please contact Susan Maxwell at smaxwell227@aol.com. 

Background

NAAHP schedules national meetings once every two years, with the aim of familiarizing pre-health advisors with trends in admissions and various fields, pooling resources and strategies for success, and developing relationships with colleagues, Deans and admissions representatives.  On alternate years, NAAHP is active at the regional meetings of its four constituent associations:  NEAAHP, SAAHP, WAAHP, and CAAHP.
