2023 Invitation to Apply for Track Coordinator
ASCA invites prospective Track Coordinators to apply for this leadership position with the 2023 Gehring Academy. Gehring will be held in person July 16 – 20, 2023 in Detroit, MI.
We are very excited that we are able to return to an in-person Academy this year in order to further enhance learning opportunities through networking and the increased focus that comes from being in a space with one another.
The Gehring Academy Track Coordinators are vital to the success of the Donald D. Gehring Academy. They have responsibility for the oversight of a specific track or session within the Gehring Academy and work in collaboration with designated faculty members to create and present the content for the track.
Academy participants consistently cite the quality and approachability of our Track Coordinators and Faculty Members as a primary reason they attend the Academy. This year’s Academy planning team, as is our tradition, will select inclusive, respected student conduct and legal professionals to represent the best of our field and Association. The work we do at the Academy shapes the future skill-base, quality, and direction of student conduct as well as the organization as a whole. We hope that you will consider this critical Track Coordinator role.
Track Coordinators receive a stipend in addition to travel, room, and board during the Academy.
The deadline to apply for the Track Coordinator position is Monday, January 16, 2023.
