Student Leadership and Engagement offers a variety of ways to get connected with conferences and other professional development opportunities. Many of these opportunities are offered to our student interns, graduate students, and professional staff members.
ACC Leadership Symposium 2025
This opportunity is a great opportunity to expand your network and learn various leadership development skills.
The symposium this year will take place at Florida State University on February 7th-February 9th! Travel, lodging, and meals for the trip are completely covered as well! The theme for this year is “Accelerating Community Change” with a concentration on how student leaders can be a part of positive change in their community. Applications are open until November 10th at 11:59 PM.
With delegations from each of the 15 Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) colleges and universities in attendance, the annual ACC Student Leadership Symposium is designed to develop a community of ACC undergraduate students who understand the relationship between global and local issues and work collaboratively to create innovative initiatives that advance students’ capacity of global leadership. Student leaders from current ACC colleges and universities will have the opportunity to engage in educational sessions, hear keynote addresses, explore topical content, and participate in experiential application through their group project collaboration and presentations.
