General Information
The Faculty Practice Pre-Conference is designed for those who promote, administer, and engage in faculty practice. The pre-conference format for this group was introduced in 2012, and the same program precedes both the Doctoral and Master’s Education Conferences. This event is in transition from the previous biennial Faculty Practice Conference to a new event to be determined and coordinated by the Practice Leadership Network. The pre-conference immediately precedes the Doctoral Education Conference, allowing educators to attend both events.
