About
The NASPA Institute for New Vice Presidents for Student Affairs is a foundational faculty-led, learning and networking experience that prepares new VPSAs to be strategic decision-makers, highly effective managers, and transformational leaders. This professional development opportunity is designed for first-time VPSAs (and other highest-ranking senior student affairs officers on campus such as vice chancellors and deans of students depending on organizational structure) who have not assumed office or are in the first two years of their first VPSA position. Participants must be the highest-ranking student affairs officer on their campus. (VPSAs in interim roles are eligible to attend.)
Join us in Columbus, Ohio in October for this faculty-led, cohort experience to hone your executive-level competencies and to develop your go-to peer network.
Institute Faculty
Accomplished vice presidents for student affairs representing a variety of institutional types will serve as the institute faculty and guide the highly interactive learning experience for the cohort.

Schedule
This exclusive professional development program is an institute. Unlike conferences where participants choose to participate (or not) in concurrent sessions, during this institute all attendees will participate in the same cohort experience and are expected to engage fully in all aspects of the program including meals and offsite activities. It is a very intensive experience, and the program will run into the evening each day.
As details of the schedule become available, they will be added here. The schedule presented here is subject to changes.

Pre-Institute Session for New VPSAs Who Are Relatively New to Student Affairs
Sunday, October 13 | 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.
One of the Institute's strengths is that it draws participants from remarkably diverse backgrounds and experiences including some who are relatively new to the field of student affairs such as VPSAs who come from the ranks of faculty or academic administration. Please join the Institute faculty and other new-to-student-affairs VPSAs for some informal discussion about the opportunities and challenges connected with assuming the VPSA role without a deep student affairs background and anything else that’s on your mind! Registration is required for this optional—but highly encouraged!—session.
